I have one of these myself, and have been wholly satisfied with it. I've had it for 6 months now, and suprisingly the thing I like most about it is the cord. I would add my voice to those 677 neweggers. I would only say it probably wouldn't work very well for you if you were using it with your left hand.

This may be off-topic, but I have been noticing a trend lately.
Now, speaking as a "devout" Mac Fan, I have to say that it seems that recently Slashdot has devoted *many* front page articles to Apple's exploits. While I appreciate most of these, it seems that many of them could have been relegated to apple.slashdot.org without posting them to the main page. I am speaking as a user whose first personal computer was an Apple ][e, and have since gone through many iterations (including system 7.5 on a Performa 5200, blegh)*. Currently I'm on a 20" iMac G5 and am loving it.
I must say that I started reading Slashdot for not-necessarily-Apple-related articles, such as the recent post about the shroud of Turin and other interesting posts about human-computer interfaces etc.
So... Message to Slashdot editors... please dig deeper, find those articles that will make us think, and please keep the mediocre Apple articles to apple.slashdot.org (which I will check religiously).
I have the newest model, and while it does have 2 fans, it is "whisper quiet" And I'm sure that with the correct accessories, and or software, it could easily double as an excellent media PC^H^H Mac.
Ironically, this exploit doesn't work on my old work mac using os 8.6, and Internet Explorer 5.0. I guess sometimes simplicity is the easiest security?
er, warning, was drunk when i wrote the parent, and am still. You are correct though, i admit it. "Thievery was around long before capitalism, feudalism, markets, and even money". And now that you point it out, I agree. I would even go as far as to point out that thievery was the very first human version of erm, sustanance? For isn't scavenging/gathering a version of thievery? Scavenging is thievery because 'the scavenger doesn't make the kill himself' and gathering is *kinda* like thievery because we "steal" our sustanance from the vegetation that produces it freely. Once again, still sauced, but I felt this one needed replying to. thanks

Actually If you bothered to look at the site, you would find that they are indeed using the Core 2 Duo in the new iMacs.
I don't know why this comment was moderated a troll, because it is very concise and accurate. If I had points at the moment I would mod it up.
ERrr,

Not being happy with your situation is what drives a capitalist society. Thievery is just a side effect of this.
I'm not sure if its been put out there yet, but this is one of the worst.
