Oh good, so this means I can have 4 screens running side by side. Or not side by side, for that matter, if the mood strikes me
BTW, earlier tonight I went to the Apple Store in Salem (NH, not MA) and it was positively frightening!
I've never seen the place this empty, ever. I don't know if this is because it's Halloween, or because of Windows 7 driving customers in droves to dell and hp dot com. I rather hope it's the former. Though, when you think about it, the latter might not be so bad after all, especially if it scares the bejusus out of Apple and makes them skip all the pointless point upgrades to give us what we really slobber for:
OS XXX. But I digress.
Anyways, the few employees that were there were polishing the screens on the all-of-a-sudden oddly plentiful (and oh so lonely!) MacBooks and iMacs. I went up to the Genius bar (had an appointment) and, after pondering for a minute which seat to take (none were taken), I sat in the the third one from the left (which also happened to be third from the right) and told the girl genius (who was wearing k9 extensions, btw) that I was there for the express purpose of obtaining information on upgrading my MP 1,1 with the 4870. You should have seen the look she gave me... I swear it was as though I just threw a 16 oz cup of luke warm coffee, brewed with Starbucks holy water (TM), in her face. Thankfully, she recovered rather quickly and proceeded to tell me that she was not at liberty to say anything on the subject, on account of Apple not having tested such a setup. I pleaded with her tearfully (OK, that's a bit of a stretch) that online forums (including Apple's own) are full of anecdotal evidence implying that such a feat can indeed be accomplished. All to no avail
Then I came home and ordered the damn thing online!!!
