Lines: 19 Charles, the opinion of the net is that Joe Applegate is a whiner. It is quite true that the 1000 series has certain limitations -- for example, they will only accept expansion boards up to 10" long. However, they are well built, and there are MANY third party add-ons (Joe Applegate's whining aside) that will work in the 1000 SL and TL. If you just want the machine for PERSONAL use, a 1000 will do nicely; if you expect "Heavy Duty" use, you would do better to look at the 3000 series -- they sport bigger power supplies and the ability to use full size add on cards. |George Madison, a/k/a George The Bear Cub, a/k/a Furr ** BEAR POWER **| |INET: gmadison@pnet02.cts.com 8-{)> ames!elroy!pnet02.cts.com!gmadison| |GEnie: GEORGE.M Arctophiles & Barbophiles Unite!
