The PowerBooks are still G3. MacWorld starts 1/9 and Apple is expected to announce new hardware. A G4 PowerBook at the least. Knowing this I decided to buy now any way as the new stuff will not be shipping soon, and not at the current prices. Then again my PowerBook is backordered. Can always cancel the backorder. -- 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.
