I'm sure it will come together in 6 to 12 months. IMO the PawerMac G5 PCI-X
slot thing was a debacle, I think they lost sales when they made that jump.
Well I know Apple lost at least one sale, I cancelled my G5 order over it.
Hopefully the transition will take place quickly, and they have good implementation
of FireWire on the new machines.
For myself I have enough PCs and Macs to keep me busy for a good year. If
the price is right I would consider buying an Intel Mac mini, as an entertainment
computer.

Congrats! My daughter (age 14) is now taller than my wife, and my "baby"
boy is about to turn eleven! Time flies. Don't put anything off when it
comes to your kids, or you'll be singing "Cats in the Cradle"...

Thanks! I wonder when he'll be able to help in the studio?:-)
If he became a musician/producer type, that would be great, but I'm not
gonna force it.

Try puppies, they change in about an hour. They were so small and now
55 lbs for the lab at 8 months. Still a baby brain though. hehe
Congrats too !!!

Michele,
> Time IS flying...I can't believe how different he looks now at 9 weeks.
Yeah... Crazy, huh? Pretty soon he'll be walking, and you'll start putting
the fragile stuff up higher and higher... ;-) I used to have a clay beer
stein that I got from Germany. It was my favorite tea cup. One day, I had
it brewing on the counter - it was about a foot back from the edge mind
you - but somehow my son managed to get up on tip-toes and hook his finger
around the handle and pull... Wow, let me tell you, I'm glad it had been
sitting there a while and wasn't still boiling! Poor kid, he got hit with a
half litre of hot water, the cup crashed into pieces at his feet, and his
parents came running in a panic... Of course, I'm sitting there saying to
myself, "my son!...my cup!...my son...!" alternately upset that he broke my
favorite cup, but freaked out that he might have gotten burned. Luckily
there was no physical damage to Alex, but the cup was done for. At the same
time, I think it was a good lesson learned - he never just pulled anything
off the counter again - so it was worth the price of the cup...
> He doesn't look like the same baby that I brought home from the hospital.
Is he sleeping through the night? Lost all the hair on the back of his head
yet? It'll probably grow back before he's one...
:-)

Thanks for the warning...I can see little Cedric asking for a puppy when
he gets older. Too bad his parents are allergic. I think a pet would
be nice.
