Yikes
Maybe its just because we area all (in some way or another) frustrated about MWSF, or maybe it because we all have the burning inner desire to make fun of band-nerds, but regardless, we have picked this poor kid to death. I know, I know, I started it. I didnt think it would escalate to this point! Anyway, I wish some of my more thoughtful and interesting posts would get this kind of feedback, but apparently, I have to get really rude with someone before people start paying attention. Oh well.
Anyway, sorry to those of you who lost faith in me as a polite, insightful poster. I normally am, but I think i was just rubbed the wrong way. Not only had I actually wanted a 1gHz Powerbook, and had it denied me at MWSF, but then I had to endure reading a post by a misinformed pre-teen who was wrongfully bragging about the 1gHz TiBook he had his band director order for him, and the rest of the marching pride. I suspect you just heard your director wrong, and ordered 550mHz TiBooks, with 1gig of ram a piece.
I know you'll deny this until the day you forge some kind of proof, and thats okay. Thats what we all did when we were 15. We said things we didnt mean to say, and knew were wrong, but did everything we could to prove we were right.
Anyway, Ill try not to flame anyone again. Well, not anytime too soon anyway.
PS: Maybe one of the posts above is correct, there's always tomorrow, and maybe they wanted to save today to just relish in the iMac. G5's tomorrow? Well, here's to hopin'
