That's what it looked like to me-COOL!

Yeah, I had heard and read as much, and after this last week, I
couldn't agree more. It's definitely not the kind of box I want to be
opening up as often as I've grown accustomed to doing with my 7600.
Looks like Ma's getting a tower and I'm keepin' my easy open 7600.
Thanks Cameron, Bruce and others for the quick answers.
Appreciate it.
