Hello,

I am seriously considering buying the Titanium.  Its primary OS will
be NetBSD not MacOS.

I am very interested in people's thoughts/opinions on this laptop,
compared with other high-end Pentium based laptops.

I believe the benefits of the TiG4 are...

o) Better CPU and DATA bus performance.

o) Less power usage.

o) Nice keyboard/mouse/screen

o) Small, portable.

Some things I'm concerned about are...

o) No power management in the OS.

o) No support for Airport or floppy disks.

o) Issues with new boot prom versions.

I would greatly appreciate any information, corrections, or
suggestions.

Thanks,
