What you get is a picture with less than half the resolution. With the Mac, you could get the picture in the ad on a page, but not on the screen. I'm getting a little fed up with the greed and shoddy craftsmanship I've been seeing in Macproducts. (they say Habadex was ported from the Apple in two months, and it shows, it shows). I understand that our modern market mandates products released before they are ready, and while I don't like it, it's there. But there's *NO* excuse to lie in your ads. If you're ashamed of the garbage you're selling, don't sell it! -- Michael Ward, NCAR/SCD UUCP: {hplabs,nbires,brl-bmd,seismo,menlo70,stcvax}!hao!sa!ward BELL: 303-497-1252 USPS: POB 3000, Boulder, CO 80307
