Jim, Re: Did they ever determine what that slot under the iMAC was for

While I have purchased Mac before, I am still puzzling what an iMac is for let alone some slot under it. Is it still in production ?

Jim <Did they ever determine what that slot under the iMAC was for?>

I am a long-time Apple user so try to stay current on both Mac and PC developments. The "mezzanine" slot was never acknowledged as having a specific purpose but some third parties did create some add-in cards to use it (though I forget what for -- graphics perhaps). Of course, I believed this this voided the warranty... assuming the Apple dealer noticed the modification.

Jim, Did you see the front of Sunday's Best Buy advertisement? It had Gateway's PIII 500s in eMachines systems!

Maybe Ted W. should buy up all those emachines, that way he is guaranteed processors from some source. ;)
