Of course they'll run out of stock before they've even shipped one but=20
there you go. I think you should join them, you don't want to feel left=20

Just make sure they up the RAM - serious point, I'd post a comment=20
saying that 512mb should be the minium they order, OS X chugs a bit=20
with 256mb as soon as you have a few apps open. And it appears that you=20
can't do the ram yourself (yet).

though!

Bulk buy anyone?

What do you want to use it for?
