I don't have the original message to reply to immediately, but for the
person making the snarky comment about new Powerbooks coming in a week or
so:

Let the drooling commence, especially on that 17" which can power a dual
link DVI display.  ;)  Laptop with 30" screen.  Aww yeah, that is almost
as excessive as a 40' long Hummer.
