The LC is slower, and can't have an FPU. Better qualify this a bit. You may not be able to buy a FPU from Apple, but there are several third parties gearing up to produce LC cards and add ons. There will be a few FPU options for the LC, and I think at least one has been released (based on hazy memory of the last MacWeek). The LC appears to me to be filling a niche as the "Apple II+" of the Mac line, the type of computer that will grow all kinds of wierd and wonderful add on devices. -john- -- =============================================================================== John A.
