Just got back from MacWorld. Real neato!

SGI has a good sized, crisp flatpanel at the show price of $1,799.00! Almost bought it. I wasn't sure if it was a 17 , 19, or 20 inch.

Comes with an adapter to hook it up to VGA.

I looked at the cube and picked it up while some kid was playing a video game on it. An Apple rep came over to tell me they already had one on it's side and disassembled at another display.

He startled me, so I dropped it, KLUNK!

The video game didn't skip a beat. The Apple rep, made a face like I punched him.

I disappeared into the crowd.

Microsoft had a good-sized booth, but they were kinda incognito. No Windows banners anywhere. They also called themselves "ms" lower-case. As in ms:Outlook or ms:Office.

I guess they did not want to risk eggs.

You can try to call your restaurant KFC to reflect a healthy lifestyle, but everyone still knows you as Kentucky Fried Chicken!
