This is great, Gateway, one of the widoze drones has really done this time. After embarassing themselves with the profile ad, they've gone and put a PowerBook TI in one of their ads. You have to take a look:http://www.lowendmac.com/scripts/portal.php?id=972 P.S. it's a stock photo, but its still a Mac in a peecee ad and if you watch ads like I do, Macs are everywhere. Macs Liberated: 9 - 6400/180 (main Mac), 660AV, 636CD, LCIII+, LCII (2), Classic II, Classic and SE. Yeah, I hate that friggin beach ball too... |

Anything for a quick buck  besides, they're probably just SONYs with that silly little "G" taped on... --------------------
