Also, while G3 sales should prop things up short-to mid-term, I think more powerful WinTel emulations such as Virtual PC 2.0 and the reported "Yellow Box" inclusion in Allegro (OS 8.5/9.0) should make Mac CPUs far more acceptable to consumer/small business buyers. Soup, I absolutely agree with you. While I've been an Apple investor for over a decade (because I've always thought the company has the best computer technology), I work and exist in a Wintel enviroment. Consequently, I have had little choice but to buy PCs. I was looking forward to the CHRP computers for this reason, and now I am looking forward to getting a Mac of some sort with a yellow box if it will give me virtually native speed for software from the PC world. This will allow me to have the best of both platforms. IMHO, I think there are a lot of consumers and even businesses out there who will shift to Macs under this scenario. I am surprised that Apple has not hyped such capabilities in their advertisements. Then again, holding apple stock has been one of the worst decisions of my life because of the company's dismal marketing capabilities. There's always hope. Sam
