I'll upgrade as soon as Apple comes out with a Powerbook G5. That is, IF they come out with a Powerbook G5. Rumors are flying that Apple is negotiating with Intel to use Intel chips. They have a substantial power-consumption advantage over the Motorola/IBM chips, which is especially important in a laptop. OS X rocks. -- Cut "to the chase" for my email address. |

Careful if you decide to upgrade to Tiger with that PB G4 though. I've decided to hold off. Many issues with various apps and I'm still not sure if they've gotten Cisco to get their VPN client to work correctly. And, a friend who upgraded to Tiger on both his PB G4s says that they run HOTTER with Tiger. Now, mine already is pretty toasty, can't imagine it warmer yet... Bill |

Microsoft bigwigs are quietly buying Apple and plan on shifting its focus from computers to lingerie for gay camels...it's first product is going to be "Frooty Wonderhumpers" Well, in any event, they say "An Apple a day will keep the doctor away..." I'd say it since that's about all they can sell, that's a good thing since they can't afford a doctor anyway... |

RE Mu floats an interesting rumor
Microsoft suck zhit bigtime. Microsoft is the perfect counter example to the idea of the magic of the market place: the most revolting software won the race. I bought a thousand dollars worth of Transmeta when they first openned up...watched it double in less than a week, sold off half, and now hold $500 worth of not much. They do have a good idea--sort of the hardware equivalent of the Java programming language. Anything bad for Microsoft is good for everbody else. What does this have to do with fishing? Apple to rescue Transmeta -- /* Sandy Pittendrigh --oO0 ** http://montana-ribberboats.com ** */ |

Amen to that brother, amen to all of that. ... What does this have to do with fishing? Not much, that's why I put OT in the Subject: header. On the other hand, what does tossing pork rinds have to do with *fly fishing* ? ;-) -- Ken Fortenberry |
