I doubt anyone was thinking that it was enormously smaller. After all, there's a certain minimum size involved given that you want a 12" screen and a keyboard (and a battery, and RAM, and a CPU, and...). The point, at least for me, is that here's (finally!) a Powerbook that's very close to the Duo form factor, that's got pretty much all the features of the high-end machines. That really hasn't happened since the Duo/2400 era. - Eric. -- Eric Strobel (fyzycyst@NOSPAM^mailaps.org) ===================================================================== If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat??? ===================================================================== ---------- Duo/2400 List, The friendliest place on the Net!
