While I agree that there is not so much reason to upgrade from a 266 to a 400, I believe there are still many people still using 486 and sub 100 mhtz Pentiums. Perhaps the salesman has the ability to tell people they need it. So, you think this will spell a problem for Gateway and Compaq if they bundle ISP service? Does this make Gateway an even greater take over now that they have a working ISP model? I think there is need for a product to do simple home LAN's, at least in my house. I have been wondering if I should subscribe to a Disney like service for my daughter to play educational games. At 3, she goes through a new CD pretty quickly and then gets bored. If they had an online service that could keep up a freshness, it might be worth the 10 or 20 bucks a month. I'd need to solve the single phone connection issue though. Have you ever heard of a card to put in a lap top to use a home cordless phone and then roam the house with no wires? That one also seemed like a good idea. Regards, Mark
