You complain that the GS should be at least twice the speed of the //c+. 

OK, lets see now. Let's see how we can make YOU a rich person overnight.

You locate a supply of 816 chips that can deliver the faster speed you
want in the GS, a reliable and ample supply of these chips, and I will
put you in touch with someone at Apple that may just be willing to put
lots of $$$$$ in your pocket for info on the supply. If AE is having
problems getting a supply of 7 mhz chips, where oh where do you expect
Apple to get a much larger supply of even faster (you mention 8 mhz)
chips??

How pray tell to you expect a faster GS cpu from Apple, when there does
not seem to be an available supply of chips???

Perhaps before you point a finger at Apple, you should check out the 
overall picture and be sure it is really their fault.

You folks screamed for a new GS, Apple delivered on it's promise of an
updated machine within the limits of what they had to work with. And
if you really, really want an upgrade, I'm almost sure your friendly
Apple service center will be glad to  order you a new motherboard on a
non exchange basis that you can snap into your existing case. If yoou
want the upgrade badly, then you should not object to the price of
doing it. I meaan, you didn't expect it for free did you????
