Morning tech news: Moms are one of the fastest growing groups online according to a new report that states that more than half of female Internet newcomers are mothers with at least one child under the age of 18; Excite@home has issued preliminary first quarter results saying it expects revenues to come in at $140-145 million for the quarter—virtually unchanged from a year ago—while reporting a loss of $0.14-$0.15 per share as the company's cash and short-term investments dwindled to $105 million from $201 million at last year's end; and AOL reports that it has exceeded 29 million users and that the average user spends 70 minutes online each day, up from 64 minutes a year ago.

    Moms as newcomers

    This is no surprise, they're the only group which isn't already online, which probably already has easy net access due to some other member being online. Go stereotypes.

    Jobs is brilliant

    And Moms are consumers who would buy a Blue Dalmation or Flower Power iMac because of their wacky color scheme. It's like Jobs knew this and designed the new iMacs just for this market.
