Though the term "Low-End-Mac" seems inappropriate for a 2K - 2.5K laptop; the common underpinning under all of these computers is the OS. While unfortunately the latest Al-Books don't allow booting to OS9, and there are some discussions on this list regarding OS9 problems; this lack of functionality hasn't stopped the inclusion of said 'books. One of the most effective things regarding the Apple system is the community that has built around it, and welcomed new Win'tel converts. Whether you believe this latest move on Apple's part is good or bad, to begin to dissolve that community for simply a means of protest against a bit of silicon seems silly and does a disservice to this list and the potential transfer of knowledge through discussion.

Ok, here's a question: Would the new MacBook qualify for this list? Current processors all have something in common, sort of. Or will there now be a MacBook list? (Like I said, I'm still very happy with my almost-new G4, but still..... :) ) Later.................Howard -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
