Or video editing, compression, and file sharing. Or MP3 encoding and CD-ROM burning while doing anything else. I love Macs. But they are still single-thread machines essentially. We reboot our G4 towers in the office at least twice a day. The sound they play at startup has become known as "playing the reboot blues" ;) M. - -- Martin Howard | Visiting Scholar, CSEL, OSU | Shit happens. email: howard.390@osu.edu | www: http://mvhoward.i.am/ +---------------------------------------
