WHOOOOOOA...Hold on a sec...Both of your arguments are completely valid, and
if he's never seen anything like this before, then I can understand it'd be
a little hard to believe given his extensive experience with such machines.
I'm sure this wasn't a personal attack on your credibility Michael, so
chill...If he doesn't believe you, WHATEVER!! WHO IS HE?? Just some
faceless apple tech on a LEM list...JEEEEZ!! :oP I almost regret posting
this topic in the first place...well...not really...
Anyway, BACK TO THE TOPIC AT HAND:
What speeds did the revision B come in? Is there a difference (like to rev.
b machines only come in 300mhz models) or do I just have outright ask the
seller what revision there is? Is there any other way to tell??
Thanks,
Justin
