I think it's foolish to stand in line for any piece of tech gear anymore. Sick of being a companies R&D/Beta tester for free. Not only that, but early adopters often get gypped from a price/performance standpoint when a month or two later, you get more for less money. Happens with Apple much too much too much. lol
I was seriously considering getting one of these within a few months, but will put the purchase off now since it "requires" OS 10.5.x for some stupid reason. Guess I'll be putting that money toward a 24" iMac someday instead .
