- I think Taligent has talked about running on a PowerPC machine, but has not
- talked about any specific machines. (I'm not sure makes sense to talk

- Plus, you probably won't see Taligent talking about unannounced Apple

- Presumably, that question will be on people's mind when the first PowerPC
- machines are announced, and based on the answer you can decide whether to
- upgrade. But since there's no way you can even order a PowerPC upgrade
- right now, it seems premature to worry about this.
