I feel your pain. I am broke broke broke. Need a new furnace broke. And somehow the Apple Powerbooks are more tempting and irrisistable than ever. Damn the gadgets.

Ahhh. Shall I smoke my first cigarette after hitting the final button on my MacMall order? Finally, I'll enter the world of mobile computing and will start dealing with curious/envious onlookers in the airport as I enjoy internet hotspots. You should have seen the airport show an Apple employee was putting on for a family sitting near me on my last trip in July. Of course, he had a powerbook and the gadgets like the iSight and a digital camera. They were fascinated. I wanted to jump on him and make him tell me when the 15"-ers were coming out but I knew it was unlikely he would know.
