I don't actually have it yet but I will by January. It's in layaway at Wal-Mart and no...it's not a Mac.

I'll bid in at 750.
Mine costs almost triple that, but it's also considerably more powerful.

Oh yeah, where've you been for the last month or so? You haven't really been too active lately.

I knew yours would be more powerful even though it is about a year older since it was higher end to begin with. Triple 750 though...hmm....$2,250. That's about what I would pay for a nice PowerBook with all those omissions that I talked about (clock speeds will be higher after Intel chips of course). What exactly are the specs on your laptop?

As for the last month....school. Just school. Well, work too I guess. The combination. That's why I've been so dormant lately.

Try this link for the PowerBook and then just imagine adding a few upgrades like ram and hard drive and you have about the same price.

Oh.....and I should tell you. vidiotgeek November 30 2005, 04:18:14 UTC

It isn't costing me $750. The laptop is supposed to retail for $488 regular price at Wal-Mart. I stood in line from 3:30am until 5am on black friday to get the laptop for $378. Number 10 of over 40+ people to get exactly 40 laptops.

But then I used my 20% discount on it for a total of:

$302.40!

I tried hiding that behind a link but I don't know javascript and I couldn't reverse engineer it from my flickrbadge here. So no surprise for you.
