:-) It is an AOL company castoff. As employees get upgrades to new laptops, we have the opportunity to buy the old ones. I've actually asked for an upgrade on my current wintel laptop to something Mac, but thought it might be fun to have a Mac of my own as well. Maybe I'll buy a dozen or so of them and resell them on the 'bay for a small profit.... :-) -- Christian http://photography.skofteland.net -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
