I hope you all find this as highly entertaining as I did... In case you didn't catch it first time around, let me paraphrase: I just saw the new Mac Portable. Besides the fact that it isn't very portable, and isn't at all affordable, it looks like the best thing around... Sure, and the Cray II is a great portable except it's a bit overweight, and a little on the costly side... :) [many of these] are implied, of course... Tongue is firmly in cheek, no flames please.. :) I think Commodore's finances are a little strained... I'd rather see a 32 bit machine than a portable, these things must have a priority, you know... :) :) :) -Dave navas@cory.berkeley.edu I didn't get any sleep last night, what do I know??
