My 2.66 anti-glare 17" should be here next week.

Awesome deal.

The 15" 2.8 uMBP is really tempting at $1,699, but it's juuust squeaking past my price range.

picked up a brand new end of life unibody 17" for 2099 in store, and didn't have to wait for shipping, sounds good to me 😉 got my free ipod and everything
