Yes. Especially since said employee probably would have been terminated for such foolishness. The texture isn't an absolute giveaway; the genuine clear CC on Ballchai's site has a bit of texture to it, as does the prototype clear SE. But they certainly don't have the same level of texture as, say, a production Mac would. Of course, were someone to mould it themselves, they could easily forgo texturing of the mould in order to make the fake seem more realistic. the pickle FAQ <http://macfaq.org/index.shtml> Software Archive <ftp://download:[EMAIL PROTECTED]//Users/thepickl/Sites/Archive/> <http://www.members.jmug.org/%7Ethepickl/archive/> _________________________________________________________________ -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
