<<I like the new imac's.>>

You know cp, I was just thinking the same thing today. Last November when Apple introduced its Apple Store, Steve Jobs put a bullseye on Michael Dell's head. (Dell had started the whole thing by saying Apple should shut itself down.) But with all the buzz about the iMac I am wondering if Gateway's consumer base isn't a new target for Apple.

This is not to say that Apple's mini-resurgence will really have much of an effect on any one pc boxmaker. Just that it becomes another factor in troubled pc-land.

Btw, Apple just did a little test. A young boy set up an iMac out of the box and get on the net in eight minutes. The Stanford MBA setting up a new PC took over thirty minutes.

Just for fun,
Marc
