Hi, Supertimer!

Looks like we both left c.s.a2 at about the same time and both returned at
about the same time.

Unlike you, my primary computers at home are still the IIgs I am using
right now, and the //e across the desk.  I'm not doing much with the IIgs,
but it's the most powerful desktop machine I own right now.  Well, I do
have that Lisa 2/5 gathering dust in the other room, but that hardly counts.

Maybe after I get my camcorder paid off next September I can buy a new
computer.  Maybe by then Apple will be selling Macintoshes with a G5 CPU. 
Don't know if it's in the works, I just think it would be neat to have a
GS at one end of the desk and a G5 at the other (look at the typography
from across the room to see what I mean...)
