MacNN has a link to an interesting Electronic Business News article which says that IBM is ready to implement silicon-on-insulator (SOI) technology on mainstream processors. According to the article IBM is expected to release PowerPC 750 running at 1 GHz (1000MHz) by integrating both SOI and copper interconnect technology into its manufacturing process. ebnews.com PowerPC will continue to kick some serious ass. Imagine the possibilities... Eric

Sam: Kudos on your brilliant sell of your options the other day. You picked the right moment, again! Let us know when you buy back. As for the iMac, I like the J&R deal best, if you can still get it. I differ from those who feel there is never a use for a floppy. I use them from time to time and I expect most people will still get them with some new software or from friends. So the $99 for the Imation seems like a good deal to me. As for software, it depends on what she will want to do. Certainly a word processor and Internet software are essential. :-) Linda
