True enough. I use my MDD (Dual 867 MHz PPC G4, 1 MB L3 cache per processor, 2 GB DDR SDRAM) for everything these days. I use it to surf the web, talk on a BBS (via Terminal), read and send email, DL torrents, listen to the radio via iTunes and (rarely) use Yahoo! Messenger. Before this I used a Quicksilver. Prior to that it was a Smurf (B&W G3). I also have an 8600/200, a 5400/180 and a 5260/100. I am a collector of old computers. I would list all my other Macs, Apples (and a Franklin Ace 500) and PCs as well as my Sun 3/60 and an old Atari (I forget the model) but that is a long list and only certain machines are topical to this list. -- Steve Conrad Henrietta, MO 64036 "The time has come for mankind to grow up and leave its cradle behind; to go forth and claim our place in outer space." - Capt.
