Eddies vs. Apple Bom Bar.

How many AAPL investors (Mac users) does it take to change a lightbulb?

Well, first they have to decide on Mac Standard, Page White or Uncorrected Gamma ...

>The Apple Bom Bar, at 17 Waverly Place, at is right across the street from Eddie's. Trust me -- it's at least an order of magnitude more comfortable meeting there first -- rather than standing around at Eddie's trying to figure out how big a table we'll need. <

Brother Ian,

While the bar area has very comfy couches, it's also a smoker's niche (so I'm not gonna want to hang out there *too* long.) And it's fairly loud. Eddie's should be fairly empty at that hour so we can just sit/order and add tables as we need to.

>Besides, the Vietnamese dumplings (with cilantro an ginger) are to die for.<

Hey, Upscale Boy. :) This is kind of place my family drags me to when we all get together.

To Die For Vietnamese Dumplings and Potted Palms vs. Great (+ cheap) Burgers-Burritos-Veggie dishes + pitchers of Beer and Diet Coke in a gritty Rathskeller ambience.

Let the people decide.
