Dan's Profile

I�m not a doctor and I don�t play one on TV. I do, however, know that when you�re bleeding freely, the first thing you do is stop the bleeding. Once you�ve stabilized the wound, then you can begin fixing the damage. It�s the same for computer companies. The G4 tower and accompanying monitors were excessively over prices and under powered. Since Apple isn�t yet ready to fix the power problem, they addressed the only component of the problem the can fix � the price. Anyone who�s stuck their finger in the wind over the last six months knows that the IBM 64 bit chips are coming but they�re not ready for prime time yet. These price drops will keep Apple in the game until the new chips arrive � and when they do, assuming they�re as fast as everyone says they are, Apple will be right back in lead.
