I had a "Grape" (purple to me) iMac and hoped they would do a grape 
model but when they did a Lime instead I figured it was time to act and 
grabbed an Indigo w/firewire. I toy with the idea of an Icebook but you 
are right about it being too sterile, I'll not upgrade until they at 
least color the apple logo! Seems silly but I bought this machine 
because I wanted it not because I had to. A friend once told me " Never 
buy a car if you don't really like the color just to save some money, 
you'll hate it every time you look at it."
