I subscribe to a number of computer mags. I just got done reading a blog entry from a *HIGHLY* respected person. I did not see the original posting over the weekend but the post that is interesting is that there are two airworks killer computers that have come out in the last few days. At least one of the two says it is thinner and faster than airwork. But the downside was that (IIRC) maxed out with 3 (three) memory slots or 2G max (if I understood it correctly) This also did not have a optical drive. Another one I did not get to read the specs on other than it was a lot faster and had optical.. So other companies seem to agree with Apple that the need is there. I wish everyone good luck, as the saying goes lets the games begin. Ed
