Miles ahead
High-speed IEEE 802.11g wireless LAN meets your connectivity needs today -- and tomorrow
Four USB 2.0 ports allow fast transfer of large files, and easy link-up to popular peripheral devices such as printers, scanners, and external CD-ROMs
Built-in modem, integrated Fast Ethernet LAN, Bluetooth™ capability, and S-video TV-out enable ultra-efficient communications and complete your confidence to connect
Hm....my Apple PB15 has all that (plus Firewire), doesn't crash, and doesn't scream "I have a small penis!".

It was once told to me that a competent race car driver driving a 911 with stock suspension could make meat out of nine-tenths of the Pelican board.

And it was once told to me that a competent bicycle racer (Sean Kelly in this case), could burn bicycle rubber uphill like a motorcycle, and sprint so hard, the frame would be bent after a race's finish. A steel frame; not c/f.

So sure, it's fast. But someone else is always faster...

Being a Mac, it whispers it in a campy flamboyant falsetto.
I have an OmniBook I found in a dumpster; that must be the AMC Pacer of laptops.

I look at you more as a metrosexual. But your swordsmanship is oh-so-butch!

"metrosexual" .. . .now that is GAY! . .. and I mean that in a school-yard, spiteful way.


"metrosexual" makes me think of "Risky Business" .. . "Joel, have you ever made love on a real-train?"
(read: sexual on the metro . . .like some tangerine dream)
