A 17" 2G/160G Macbook Pro with Applecare is $3148 from the Apple 
store. The included software on the ebay 17" is not worth $4000. The 
ebay history shows that the bidding went from $1500 to $7100 in 8 
minutes.  The winner was listed as "not a registered user". I thought 
you had to be registered to bid. All very strange.  Could it possibly 
be that the winner is the seller who decided not to sell and instead 
of canceling just entered an impossibly high bid?
