**OT**

Just got word that my tangerine iMac was delivered today. $1,246 from MacMall, which includes the hefty charge for FedEx priority overnight service. My additional 32MB of RAM should be here early next week. I hope that installation doesn't turn out to be as hairy as it looks. Soup?

Can't wait to get home and play!!

Mark

**END OT**

"I caught the "colors" iMac ad Thursday night during Friends. When it ended, my 2 1/2 year old daughter said "Daddy, I want to hold one".
She's already picked the blue one as her favorite color.

Says something for the appeal of them, doesn't it? I've never heard her say anything like that after a Gateway commercial :-)"

Steve:

It says that the iMac appeals to a 2 1/2 year old girl. That is all. Try not to read too much into it. It is a good first step, but I would be more impressed if the ads appealed to ADULTS.
