OT Too long on the dark side

Those who read headers will notice something quite different
about this post. I spent almost five years on the dark side,
I do *NOT* know what the hell I was thinking, but when my
little VAIO kicked the bucket the other day, may she RIP,
I replaced her with this beast.

Woo Hoo !! Unix under the hood again !! If I *ever* decide
to use a Micro$oft box again would someone *PLEASE* shoot me.

Is that the only set of conditions, or, for example, if you decide to
whine about some wine list, should you be at least struck with a shovel
repeatedly or jabbed with a barbeque fork or something? Suppose you
post any more gibberish from the NY Times...are you desirous of being
pelted REALLY hard with golf balls or smacked several times with a large
stick? And most importantly, should one just sort of wing it and decide
for one's ownself what you might wish vis-a-vis injury for
transgressions?

And if the possibility of having this kind of **** ITM'd to the winner
of the proposed Wolfgang Fortenberry Prize doesn't overcome the Montana
raffle indifference, well, nothing will...

it's like sitting in front of a t.v. playing a two minute video of jackie
mason doing knock-knock jokes.......on an endless loop......on
amphetamines......with your eyelids pinned open. which, if you think about
it, is eerily similar to reading hunter thompson......hm........

So what did you get? I kinda like the look of the G5 Minicubes for 500
bucks.

It's a 15" Powerbook with 1GB of memory, just a G4
but it'll do.

Nice. My wife uses a G4 for DV editing with iMovie. Really nice piece
of kit for something nearly 5 years old.

I use a Powerbook G4. It's been a nice machine, but it's getting kind of
long in the tooth. I'll upgrade as soon as Apple comes out with a
Powerbook G5. That is, IF they come out with a Powerbook G5. Rumors are
flying that Apple is negotiating with Intel to use Intel chips. They
have a substantial power-consumption advantage over the Motorola/IBM
chips, which is especially important in a laptop.

OS X rocks.
