Mmmmmmm..............MacIntel

I really hope someone wins the OSX Contest - that would remove any potential stumbling blocks to owning a Macbook. I think I'll be pushing to get one from work though, rather than buying myself since I will be due to refresh the old Dell in a little wile. For home I think I'll wait until they stick the new Intel chips in a Mac Mini, though if they go for a single core I may jump to something else, I don't fancy Rosetta running single threaded.....

The good news continues on the Ultra 60 front - I picked up a second CPU for $25, so now it has 2 x 360 Mhz Ultra Sparc II w/4MB cache and the total system cost goes up to $100 - still a pretty good deal methinks. That gives the CPU's a total of 8MB cache - considering that my *upgraded* Amiga 1200 had the same total RAM back in the day, I find that rather weird :)
