    I'm leaning towards him getting into selling bundles (as mentioned in the comments). It would make the most sense and probably be pretty lucrative for him given his traffic.



    Yep, you were right... he sold his soul to Amazon.com. Not too surprising, I guess.

    I'm waiting for SR before buying a new MacBook (not Pro). I go on vacation next week so I expect either:

    A) New MBs this week and I won't be able to order because it would get here when I'm not.

    B) New MBs this week and the wife won't let me order one because of all the $$$ we're spending on vacation.

    C) New MBs next week and I won't know about them till I get back from vacation.



    *Sigh* Maybe I can take comfort in the notion that they won't ship till June. \

    Well, then half the sites on the net (including AI) have 'sold their soul' to Amazon, because this is pretty common. As much as his site gets used, I'll bet very few people actually take the time to click the Make a Donation button. Who knows what PayPal or godforsaken evils lie beyond that click. I'm sure people will be more comfortable buying through this (and hey, at least he took the time to set up a proper Amazon Store) knowing they'll be supporting him at the same time.



    Regardless, today's Announcement #2 is more along the lines of what I was thinking anyways. HD for Indies Configurations over at Silverado Systems. Not a horrible idea either.

    Yes, my comment was a bit sardonic, it's all good for AMZN.

    Theme rumors are becoming tiring, I just want actual products, and pronto.

    Suckers; the announcement had nothing to do with Apple. Y'all should turn down the sensitivity on your rumor-radar.
