I myself have often been guilty of joining a thread without fully reading it so how can I complain, right ! But the questions asked here are; A. Is the Facebook Wall in the name of Low End mac legit or not. ( i.e.- an actual LEM effort) B. Why are Low End mac listers NOT SUPPORTING IT ( or taking it by storm)? All else is dross.
