I think Apple is well on its way to oblivion. Have you noticed that their claim of staying price competitive with the PowerPC's has been largely forgotten? A PowerMac 8100/100 costs about twice as much right now as a Pentium 90. While Apple has managed to turn in a couple of strong quarters recently in terms of units shipped, they continue to lose market share. We run something more than a dozen machines here, mostly Mac's. But with only rare exception, we'll be buying Pentiums in the future. There's simply no compelling reason any more to prefer Mac. Windows 95, OS/2 and WindowsNT all deliver far greater capabilities than the Mac OS and the machines are less expensive. No sense in staying with yesterday's favorite. Jerry
