I might be repeating myself, or this might have been already answered in the middle of those extremely long threads around here, but:
1) I got a fine 1.67 PB. Not the latest one, but the first 1.67.
2) I paid a reasonable amount of money for it, including stupid Brazilian custom taxes
3) Its perfectly fine, up and running OSX leopard.
4) I'm willing to buy MOS 3.0 when it comes out
5) if my beloved PB fails (like any hardware, specially those extremely hot steve jobs notebooks), I'm unable to transfer MOS license to another HW?
