  • You didn't ask about this specifically, but watch out for things like saved games. My WCIII saved games are in my applications folder for some reason. That's just the default. I've been burned by this one a few times following a backup/reformat cycl…

  • $500 is way too much for that 'book. I just bought an 800mhz g3 version for ~$300. Admittedly, that was a great deal, but $500 should get you more than that. (In May that version will be 3 years old.)

  • Wow. That was out of control! I wonder how many people got in line by accident? You know, you see a line, you get in the back of it. How much did that store rake in on that day??
