"2) "PowerPC" is the name of the chip that the new Macs will use. " So this means that Apple _is_ migrating from 680×0 to PowerPC for all the new Macs and by getting a PowerPC now, instead of a Quadra, I'll be ready for future Apple endeavors? Finally, I read today in one of the OS/2 magazines that Apple is readying a version of System 7 for PowerPC and that all Mac apps can run on this PowerPC. Is there an expected release date for the PowerPC and its System 7? I called Apple to get literature on PowerPC, so I expect it in a few days. thanks, dave
