<< My good old beige G3 at home on the other hand, running OS 9.2.1 is steady as a rock and rarely has to be restarted for a crash/freeze.>> ====================================================== Ken, I agree with you. System 9 is an excellent OS. Much simpler and less complex-looking than Windows for the end-user. Jobs could have built a terrific customer base on 9, whatever he would call it for promotional purposes. Frankly, I turned off Launcher because it looks like hell, takes up too much of the screen, and is intrusive. I work out of the Apple menu and aliases. I'm oriented to the end-user. That's where a computer makes it or doesn't. I want Apple to compete with the PC community. It that requires that Apple buy processors from Intel, so be it. Then the issue will become the design of hardware, the universality and stability of the OS, customer service, and an easy environment for software programmers to work in. Apple could excell in all of these categories. bob -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
