Lines: 14 Ryan, Sorry, I guess that didn't come out the way I wanted it to. I didn't mean that they'd go broke or anything, I just meant that they'd lose the relatively high position in that marketplace that they have -- For instance, systems such as SPARCStations are competing with their high-end Mac IIs, and to be perfectly honest, I don't know of any Macs that come anywhere NEAR the power of a Sparc - even a low-end sparc at that, which is relatively close in price to the high-end Macs. Anyway, it's just a thought.... with many new companies moving so fast now, it makes Apple appear to be standing still. - Andrew. Internet: aabenson@balance.cs.mtu.edu.
