That seems to me a good idea. In fact I think waiting longer might be 
an even better idea. Because I recently heard that Adobe said that it 
plans to release the first OS-X version of Photoshop during the 
second quarter of 2002. Let's be optimistic and assume that its first 
bug fix is released by the end of the third quarter, and that the 
first OS-X version of "Real World Photoshop" is too. And that we've 
worn out our 1160s and no longer mind Epson's not having released an 
OS-X driver for them. I think then - in the fall - might be the best 
time to get a box designed with OS X in mind. But my strategy is to 
stay well back from the bleeding edge by buying the second 
generation, not the first, and by keeping the principal piece of 
hardware, the OS, and the principal piece of application software 
contemporaneous.
