My LC has served me faithfully for 6 years. I've seen the new PowerMacs
and I think they suck. They come with about 25 or so extensions
pre-loaded, the things are abominably slow even with basic tasks. They
crash all the time, and the system software takes up almost 4MB of the
RAM. That's totally rediculous. Apple has once again shown me that what it
promises in a new product is often nothing like what one gets.

My LC is 4/40, no upgrades. I have a 14.4 modem with it, and all I do is
internet. It has MS Word 5 on it, although I rarely use it (I prefer
TeachText). I also have other assorted utilities of use to me. So
altogether, I have PPP Internet Software, NewsWatcher, Macweb, Fetch, NCSA
Telnet, MSW 5, AND the system software (7.1.1), and I still have 14MB of
free space. I do right well for myself :)

Phreak in peace, d00ds...
