Dear Mr. I'll eventually get it: You are splitting hairs again. Sure, they have a product. They had a low end product since last spring. But as Meredith & company doesn't miss a chance to emphasize, they don't like to sell too many of those and they try to steer the customer to a high end machine. However, the growth is coming from guys who want to have a PC AND a net connection for $14.99 via GTW or $10.99 via Apple. (I think those were quoted on their TV ads.) I'll tell you what will make me upgrade/buy new PC. If they can come up with a slim design where my processor is no bigger than a notebook and a nice flat screen for $1500-2000 I'll go for it to save space. (The odds are Apple would be the 1st to do this). Till than, they're going to find someone who is upgrading from a 486 :)
