Howie, All very good reasons for not selling your machine!
I'd like to add why I'm not selling my UMAX. It does every thing I need
it to so why replace it. There is no compelling reason why I need a new
machine. The only reason I can think of is if I just had to have one of
those new very pretty to look at iMacs. Despite the problems we have
and often blame on it being a clone rather then a "real" Mac it is a
great machine. In fact maybe one of the last non-desposable machines.
People are all ready dumping their "old" iMacs for new models. I plan
on running this baby tell it's dead and no way to fix it! There may at
some point be software that won't run on it. When that day comes I may
re-think things. later Will S
