Murray just pointed me at: I've been lusting for a laptop too. Then decided a 500 MHz 256MB 20G Apple Powerbook G3 for $2200 was a killer deal. Ordered one the first week of January to learn a week later that Apple had depleted all inventory of that model. Declined a 400 MHz for $2000 but got in line for a Titanium G4 400 MHz for $2600. Still waiting. The original ETA was Feb 5. Dealers are just now getting their first demo units. Expect MacOS X will be the next best thing to Genuine BSD. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.
