Hey Lynette--I'm in the boat you're in with a PowerMac 9500 that's been
upgraded two or three times. Just reinforces to me that you don't need the
latest latest all the time to make great art. I think I'll wait until
System
10 is out to consider a new computer---since System 10 means  changes  in
how
the computer works I believe.

Sure, I'd participate in a bulk Epson printer buy, but I don't have time
to
do the reserach. I wonder what the schools/universitites  had to go
through
to get  on the reduced rates for computer equipment. I don't suppose
non-profits organizations would qualify.
