PowerMax has a very reasonable price for someone who wants a 4 gig
machine without having to crack it open, and that is where I was
planning to order a new one in another week or so.  However, I will now
have to look at Mac Connection. 

And now that I have looked at Mac Connection, it looks like for the
configuration I want, PowerMax is cheaper, but if you want only a base
machine to upgrade yourself, Mac Connection is cheaper.
