you can boot off Firewire drives.>

Okay, just to make sure I understand you -- I'm not sure I do --

1. Do you mean to say that you can't boot up a B&W by pressing the power 
key on the keyboard, or that it doesn't have one? If so, how do you turn 
the B&W on for use?

2. I'm afraid I don't know the subtleties here. I mean, even as a G3 
owner, I didn't understand the difference between a Beige G3 like mine 
and a B&W G3 like that new fellow Daniel's until today, so I REALLY don't 
know the difference between G4s. That being the case, what is a Yikes, 
and what is a Sawtooth?

Thanks,
