That's why I encased my original quote in [salt grain] tags. I didn't know if it was true or not, but I thought I'd pass it along. Guess I won't make that mistake again. <img src="graemlins/hmmm.gif" border="0" alt="[Hmmm]" /> <img src="graemlins/bugeye.gif" border="0" alt="[Skeptical]" />
I was perusing the Apple site just now and noticed the "180 days no payment option" for Apple Instant Loans which ends on Jan 31.
At first I thought that Apple wold not want to have this offer active and have a potentially big selling upgrade/speed bump announcement with no sales revenues to report for the quarter.
Then I thought, "Oh wait, It would just mean that MBNA was one of their biggest buyers for this quarter." SO I guess that the "180 days" promo would have no effect on product announcements. Right?

So there won't be a press release? ALL THIS SHIT IS COMING FROM RUMOR SITES???
That's pathetic. I hate rumor sites when they do that.
Where's the G5?
