How much is a used iBook worth to you?

Screaming, crushing crowds, injuries... all for a chance to buy a 4 year old used iBook. What is wrong with these people?

That's absolutely amazing. Wait, here's an opportunity to use my new word: That's fectacular!

It's as if these people live in a parallel dimension that shares it's physical space with my country. Or maybe it's the other way around.

Still, the people that cut in line deserved what they got. >:-)

They had $50 dollar IBooks! OMG how did I miss that!

Well, a 4 year old laptop would be a serious upgrade over your current one, wouldn't it? :-)

Hell, you could almost get my used 4- (or is it 5-?) year-old iBook for free. But not yet; I need to inherit someone else's newer one first. ;-)
