Actually, I was just expressing my annoyance that the Pismo is going up to 900Mhz/1Ghz on their G3 chips (so you get to decide between G3/900 and G4/500 as upgrade options)... while the Lombard users get to choose between G3/500 and G4/500 as upgrade options. The G3/900 chips aren't different enough to prevent their use in the Lombard, which makes me curious.

The pismo is a great machine, but the lombard is 1. 66mhz, and 2. missing
firewire. Other than that, it's an absolutely wonderful machine as well.

Also be advised the Powerlogix will be using G3/1000 chips beginning
sometime in January. They offered me the option of waiting, but I
needed
mine ASAP in case I get deployed.

Yummy! Did they give you any idea on the price for the new one? I'll be
in
the market for a chip upgrade early next year, after I pop in a new hard
drive.

Dang, why is the Pismo getting so much loving on the G3 speed market when us Lombard users are stuck deciding between a G3/500 and G4/500.
