Heh... just wait for the new Apple Powerbooks with 64 bit PowerPC 
processors to hit the market soon for about 1/4 the price of these (or

nation that is attacked, and every man will be glad of those 
conscience-soothing falsities, and will diligently study them, and 
refuse to examine any refutations of them; and thus he will by and by 
convince himself that the war is just, and will thank God for the 
better sleep he enjoys after this process of grotesque self-deception."
