Just looking over the computer sales page here at the UI today, and came across a rather interesting thing: <http://wolf.weeg.uiowa.edu/tango/CanSearch.qry?color=mac&size=dt&category=system> I remember when the G3 was coming out, this school had thirty on order (TOTAL, for all three configs). Now they have 30 iMacs on order, but even more interesting is the fact that they still have 21 of G3 266 on order. This is notable, I think, because the UI has a history of being awfully tight with its ordering, almost always getting in fewer computers than they need. This tends to really exacerbate any delays from the manufacturer, as you might guess. I can't wait to get my hands on iMac. Mark
