What does weight matter in a desktop environment? I have a MDD Dual 1GHz G4 and it was 47 lbs out of the box. I don't care. I have a sturdy desk. I am not going to move it around on a daily basis. That's why I have a TiBook for portability. And it weighs in at 5.4 lbs...not 1/4 of the weight of your lumbering cumbersome iMac. ;-) -- ============================================================== Kyle H.
