this is pretty much what i've come to. If i could buy an atx ppc motherboard now, I would. but i can't, so i won't :( And I'm not willing to own another apple proprietary design which is, for all intents and purposes, not upgradable ($1500 to replace the motherboard so that i can have a ne $500 processor is not "upgradable"). IBM's workstations with ppc are a bit much for my taste, leaviang intel & alpha. And an alpha seems to start at an extra $1000. I'm leaving in a few days for a workshop, so I'll buy second week of august. If the "Hot 603" motherboard is out, and reasonably priced, i'll try for one of those with a k6. If not, I think it's a FIC 2011 with a K6-200. I've found I can get that in a full tower with 3gb, 32mb sdram, video card, and cheap tape drive for about $1200. rick -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
