The mac is dead! It was a good system, but win95 and NT have taken over. 
From what I read, win NT is replacing the Mac software. Apple sold one 
of its prossesor plants and they are in finacial trouble. Most software 
developers for graphic software are targeting win Nt now, so the mac 
will slowly fade away. PCs are so much more upgradable, though not as 
stable, but they are getting better. I own a PC and enjoy the freedom of 
upgrading my prossesor often (6 times within the past year) and buying 
motherboards and components from any vender with the best price. Just 
look in Computer shopper, 99% of the stuff is for PCs! That should tell 
you something. I hate to get into this pissing contest, but I read these 
threads often, and find it hard not to join in.

Tedog!
