I read in MacLeak that Apple plans to release three new notebook Macs
this fall.  These seem to be nice products... under 8 pounds, a couple
use 030's, one at 25 Mhz, but the article didn't say whether these
machines had the one feature that would seal my decision: on board
video.

Give the new portables an LC-style on-board video port and this is the
machine I use both at home, hooked into a 13" color monitor or FPD, and
on the road, using the portable's own screen.  No slots, but for the
flexibility I'd gain I wouldn't care.

How 'bout it, Apple?
