Black Friday and the Christmas season are upon us and consumer spending is way down, and consumer confidence is lower, so prices are going to be slashed to get folks into the stores. Also, economists are starting to whisper the 'D' word...not Depression, but Deflation, which ain't good. <http://tinyurl.com/54ta47> $100 off is hardly a frightening discount! I wouldn't worry. Nor about "deflation"- more attempts by the media to make us panic! Apparently people have forgotten how my fuel prices ROSE for a year and now that fuel prices are back under $2- yippee- where they should be- a lot of things traveling in trucks should be getting cheaper again! Sadly there are permanent scars to the past year's inflation- cereal boxes went from 14-15 ounces down to 11 ounces, soup and potato chip containers lost weight also- Thank God Apple didn't shrink the Mac down to- um- oh wait- that's the iPhone! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to Low End Mac's iMac List, a group for those using G3, G4, G5, and Intel Core iMacs as well as Apple eMacs.
