I have the fever myself. I priced one today & almost bought it but through the years I have always asked myself 'is this what I really want'. After I answered that question I started to add what I wanted, & decided that for me it was still a PowerBook if I was gonna jump. I didn't. And if I did I told myself I'd couldn't sell it. I am still in that love relationship with my G4 s900 800mhz 1 gig feel good classic box. I often think that I should list it on ebay but haven't as yet. I use Mac's at work (new ones) & my kids have the sexy iBooks but I still love my s900. I just don't have Panther I keep telling myself. And I have used OSX for maybe a year or longer and find myself laying in bed thinking about my wants & I have convinced myself it is the same, chair only it has three legs. But the truth is I still long for it> > From: FA <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Reply-To: "SuperMacs List" <[email protected]> > Date: Wed, 12 Jan 2005 14:30:58 -0800 > To: "SuperMacs List" <[email protected]> > Subject: [SM] Umax value ??? > > What will this do to our now aged Umax ( or any older say 1.5 ~ 2 year > old G4) value ?
