Hello, Nowadays, the number of Mac models on market is very small: we only have one high-end, more expandable Mac (PowerMac); two more consumer models (iMac and eMac) and the ever-present Mac mini (and of course the laptops and the Xserve line).
But there's something missing! In the early (and mid) 90s, Apple manufactured low-end computers which were far more expandable than iMac (which only lets us upgrade RAM, HDD and add Bluetooth and AirPort). I guess the changing of the processors would be a great opportunity to change a bit the models available. There should be more Performas around here! Apple should rethink, because one of the main reasons people don't buy a Mac is because it isn't expandable (even the G5 has only 3 PCI slots, with a GF 6800 in the PCI-X it only has 2). What happened to expansion slots? PDS? Hah! I'm not saying that Apple should produce pretty PCs Mac OS X compatible. But I'm delaying a bit buying a Mac, (and I was really thinking of buying an eMac) because the expansion issue is really important when it comes to buy the right hardware. Greetings. (and I hope there aren't many horrors in my grammar, it's almost bed time here in Portugal) ---------------------------- Manuel Marques http://manuelmarque.no.sapo.pt/ -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
