-> While I applaud Apple in their development & marketing of newer Macs, I can't help but think that the average consumer doesn't need all the bells and whistles they include with each machine. Of course I do wonder just how far the Apple line could have been extended. :) >My low-end Mac is my very reliable IIsi. -> I currently use a IIci for most of my daily usage. While I have plenty of other vintage macs, I only have the IIci set-up for internet usage (its on my fastest modem. (No, we don't have DSL or cable modem capability here)). My only PowerMac (5260/100) is used to play games mostly. >The majority of people (PCer's especially) get caught up in the hype about >clock speed and "better improved" CPU's. -> I know Mac users who drool over each new speed bump of the Mac CPU. I know people who, despite the G5 being released recently, are wanting either a speed bumped G5 (an increase in MHz) or the G6 to be released haste post haste.
