You're right. Hrmmm - maybe I saw a price list at the computer store on
campus with a misprint or something, or maybe I'm thinking of the low-end iBook.
Ok, out of the box the $2500 (guess we get a whole $100 off for educational
purchases - wheee) model is ok. I'd still stick another 128 in it, though.

Ught, sim games - can't stand them. Rachael's a big fan of some
rollercoaster game - tycoon or something. She even said its better than the

genre. I lean more towards the kill 'em and blow things up side.
