Just back from the Rockingham Mall Apple Store at Salem, NH. After hearing all the stories about groovy free tee shirts and mouse pads at earlier release parties I am slightly under-whelmed by the Panther Release "dog tags." Sizeable crowd, though, and great deals on "old" (by a few days) models of iBooks and eMacs. With the 10% discount that could have been sweet but between my wife's likely reaction to "ANOTHER MAC?" I dragged myself past the great deals, and got my copy of Panther. Once it finishes Repairing Permissions I start upgrading my iBook! Patrick
