Why am I beginning to feel "left out" since I do
not own a G3/G4?  :)
It must be really impressive to have guys like yourself
who are knowledgeable compliment it.
Maybe I am old fashion or behind the curve thinking
that my next box might be an Alpha (maybe DS-10) but
for the same amount of money would I be better off
with a Mac?
I know it comes down to what you want to do with it but it
seems like you can make the G4 do about anything.
By the way, how is http://www.islandco.com/ ?
I see they have a DS-10.
