A definite candidate for an iMac.

Hilarious story - something I have dreamed about doing to my own PC at times. *sigh*
Bad part is, the dude's temper just cost him $2600. I don't think they will cover sledgehammer abuse under warranty...
Not to mention the fine he'll likely get.
Too bad no one got video of this...
Not to mention the fact that any women in there with their kids probably had the shit scared out of them. How would they know he only intended to take out the computer...
Not that I don't like to hear about the death and destruction of a Gateway PC, but this guy deserves to pay a big fine. Moron.
<strong>Im still not getting why he was arrested. I meen all he did was destroy his own property. Is that illegal?</strong><hr></blockquote>
[quote] They jailed him, and he was released later Monday after posting a $150 bond for disorderly conduct, a misdemeanor charge.

Of course if the same thing were about to happen at an Apple Store, I'd lunge in front of the sledgehammer...
