Default praying for 6 slot at Mac expo

Ok, I am praying really hard for the Mac Expo which is coming up next week in SF. Steve Job please do not waste your time with those stupid cube design. Give us a dual G4/5 with 6 slot...please.

With Apple's stock being as low as it is, you just might see a prototype. Unfortunately, I think it will be some time before it hits the streets. A little Vaporware might be good for Wall Street.

I'd like to see Faster MACs like 700 or 900mhz none of this Dual cover-up speed stuff.
and 6 slots would be cool

I'm not sure what the big deal is about having a six slot mac.

I have a Mix Plus system (two slots)
and a UW SCSI Card (third slot)

I get 64 tracks and a decent amount of room for my plug ins.

Now that PT5.1 will support TDM & RTAS plug ins, wouldn't it just be cheaper to buy a newer faster mac than buying the overpriced digicards.

Just curious.

PS Don't tell digi or they'll take that feature off of 5.1

six slots would not be enough...most of us who need more than three would need an expansion chasis regardless (in light of the complete system price they are _not_ expensive).
