Cool G5

i ordered the 1.6GHz G5 this afternoon. I had a buddy that works for apple order it for me. It saved me 20%. Downside was it wasnt customizable, but thats not too big of a deal.

Now I just need a deal on a gig of ram.

Very nice ribitch. Hopefully in the next month or two I will be getting a dual g5 at work to play with. I can't wait!

By the way do you know if the X.3 server software is out yet?

That's what I thought but if you go to the X.3 section of the website it looks like it is currently for sale. I guess I can wait a few days then

Yeah . . . no its for pre-order look at just the frontage huge ass count down on it . I have been running 7b85 for a few days testing it out, very nice lots of improvements to finder much welcomed. And man oh man, expose is so fun to just play with, but actually amazingly helpful in sorting through tons of apps at once. Can't wait for the release. BTW, same day the new Apple store is opening up over at UTC is when panther is released.

Woah I didn't know they were going to open one at UTC. Do you know if it is going to be bigger or smaller than the one in Fashion Valley? I can usually go to the UCSD bookstore for the Apple products that I need, but they don't usually have all the items out for people to play with. If this store will be as big as the one in FV then I'll definitely be heading over there a lot

Not sure how big its gonig to be. Haven't been over to UTC in a while so haven't seen where the store will be. My guess it should be at least the same size as the FV. Would be nice if it was one of those flagship stores like the one up in LA at the grove.

I did hear though that they hired a lighting crew to get a huge X spotlight for shining up in the sky a la batman. . . could be interesting.
