C-man full of Crap, man!

Your hunch is that imac will cannibalize AIO??? GIVE ME A BREAK!

Right now the institutional price for a 233MHz G3 AIO is $1600.

For $300 over the iMac's price you get-

1) the coveted Floppy Drive
2) Scsi port
3) 2 serial ports
4) Three expansion slots.

ANYBODY think SOMEBODY might want these in an art room, science class, or computer lab?

The iMac will rule in the Library and in the English labs. Elsewhere, the AIO has plenty of differentiation. AIO is already available with graphics boards for video I/O and second monitors, and faster processors.

I can see why Apple is cutting the Education market away from the retailers. When was the last time you spent a couple of days in a school computer lab? Sheesh! At least quote the institutional price lists when you start spouting numbers!

The real price in the schools is trying to support Windows 95 on a network. Been there.
