Bob,
If you get some free time with nothing better to do, try to bring up
the latest version of a Word in emulation mode, and compare it to a
basic entry level P75 box. It is silly for Power PC people to harp on
this emulation capability. Go ahead and argue the merits of the box,
as it's not a bad machine, but to argue it's PC compatibility features
is, at best, disingenuous. If your primary purpose is to run PC software,
it would be an incredibly foolish decision to buy a PPC box.
