I'm waiting for PPC also. I think it's an awesome chip, at affordable pric. Much cheaper than Pentium. From what I've read, PPC will be running faster than Pentium. I heard BAD stories rumours about Pentium. Intel have used very old technolgies in fomr of it's components and it's known to be overheating. Anyway, I'm waiting for the price war to start soon, and I'll be etting PPC soon. :)) andy
