Hi Paul, different subject. Right now I'm deciding on buying a computer. It's either a 400MHZ desktop for about $2,400 or a 266MHZ laptop for about $3,000 with everything I want.

My question, when do you see the laptop catching up to the 400MHZ performance level of a desktop? Because if it's only a couple of months away, I may elect to wait and purchase a laptop then.

I haven't read too many articles regarding the time frame of laptop speed increases lately.

Michael

Hey Paul,

You picked up some AMD? Are you going to sell it on a pop up or hold for the several months? Sounds interesting since they have been so beaten up and the wall street media seems to do anything from letting her sit down for long...
