I'm in the market for one and am curious about how Mma will perform on either a PPC Mac Duo or a pentium subnote. Any idea if the PPC will be as snappy as their big brothers? Are certain features left out that will slow it down? What features, such as the Cache, should I insist on getting to make a pentium notebook most efficient? Is this the right place to ask? email or postings are fine. -- Chris E. Forest forest at ananke.mit.edu http://www-cmpo.mit.edu/~forest
