The ad claimed that the 520 is twice as powerful as most business macnines and had great graphics and games. The ad was very well do although they did seem to want to cram a lot into a 30 second spot. Now why would a company that a lot of people claim is dying all of a sudden spend lots of money producing spiffy ads, it just doesn't make sense. Just thought I would throw my 2 cents worth in. -- Name: Ted Sikorski (University of Toronto Computing Services) Path: sikorski@utcs.gpu.toronto.edu alias: ted@utoronto.bitnet
