Hi all, got home late. Missed all the fun.

• Don't have anything to add re: today's market action, except for the first few minutes of trading I saw the bid/ask jump under the last trade by a few sixteenths. Never saw it this blatant before.

• I don't think, we'll be lowering the price of our existing G3 inventory. My boss feels, and I agree, that many customers need the backward compatibility of SCSI and serial connections. He even asked me if we should raise our prices on the old units!

[I don't think this is a negative on the new CPUs. It's basically in the same situation as the iMac was except that their are lots of USB peripherals now.]

• I got an open box Studio Display! Very sharp, but finicky. Very sensitive to viewing angle and the color temperature seems a bit red but I think I'll keep it. Great form factor!

• Lots of people calling about the colored iMacs as well as other models.

• Oh, BTW. My boss mentioned that we're looking for intake people. Should be Mac-enthusiasts and good listeners. Check out the Tekserve.com website for more info on the company.

Well said, Ralph...I agree with your assessment of IE 4.5 for the Mac...

As for the Yahoo hearts, is your Java enabled? Go to EDIT, then PREFERENCES, then JAVA and switch it on...(you've probably already tried that)...

Apple is supposed to roll out a better java enabler for the Mac any day now...sad to say, PCs handle java far better than Macs at this time...hopefully, the update wil fix that...

BTW, ever run into dwilli while playing hearts? that is my mother-in-law and I think she plays Yahoo hearts about 24/7...

regards,
Ken
