- Sorry, but the 486/100 is just as "tired" as the A1200, IMO. I know _I_
- am "tired" of using the damned things... and rebooting on a regular basis
- for no apparent reason. And waiting 10-20 seconds to get my mouse back
- after shutting down an application. And waiting the same amount of time
- to LAUNCH them. And so on, and so on, and so on...

- Point being, anyone that thinks a 486/100 is Nirvana, obviously Nirvana
- confused with Sarajevo.
