<<The net PC died already. >>

Not according to Intel Chairman, Andy Grove in today's article at Time Magazine's daily site:

cgi.pathfinder.com

He says, "What started as general purpose computers with network capability added almost as an afterthought will metamorphosize into network machines that also do computing."

The article goes on to his rave about Apple's iMac as the future of computing.

That network capability he mentions as an "afterthought" to PCs was always "engineered" into all of the early Macs and ever after.

Apple is again blazing the way for new technology. Network computers still have a chance.
