[ale] My iBook

[Michael Still]

Actually today I was thinking about going today at lunch to the apple
store and grabbing one of the mini's.  It's right at that price point
where I can say what the hell it'll be worth it just to learn the mac
platform.  Another thing I had considered was getting a good ibook and
loading Virtual PC on it for my x86 needs, but I'm not sure about
linux support on it since it's now a microsoft product.
