<<we expect the market to perform better in the next six months, with improved demand for low-cost and portable PCs," said Bruce Stephen, IDC group vice president of worldwide PC research. >> This is were Apple should cash in. I've never seen people turn away from PowerBooks. Overage of Performas were always the problem in the past. I don't ever recall an overage of PowerBooks. Apple is poised to take over the Laptop market if they can get greater variety and flexibility along with cheaper prices. A good sized laptop with a simple docking station would be a good solution. I never liked my Duo Dock. (I know I have the fix for the resistors that alleviates the unable to undock dilema). It was too electro-mechanical. When you're in a hurry, that delay in undocking could be agonizing. Make it super-fast and bundle with Virtual PC. -Bill_H
