    Hrm.... G4 upgrade offer... Has a nice sound to it, eh? I'm not saying that something like that will happen, but it sounds reasonable to me...

    What do you guys think? Do you think that there would be an intrest in a G3->G4 upgrade, or even a 7447->7447A upgrade? Sounds almost like a poll..... Hrm... Yes... A poll...

    @Targhan

    I think that's a great idea, I'd definately be interested in
    upgrading to a G4 (7447A) card. :)

    I've order a Peg II G3 because:
    - I don't have enough money for the G4 version
    - G4 version has a fan, so not suitable a a computer :-)

    I would upgrade if:
    - I have enough money which is not very soon :-(
    - The new G4 card has no fan. It should be possible because on the "fact sheet", the MPC7447A "low power" consume 9.3 W at 1.167 Ghz.

    By the way, I can't login with AWeb on MorphZone, Tharghan, could you to something about that ?

    I would also be interested in an upgrade for the new G4. The 7447A is scheduled to be in production Q2 2004, so it should be avalible soon.
