If you're happy paying it, then yes. ;) Having said that, I will also note that they're going on eBay for $100-$125; but of course you'd probably also have to pay shipping, insurance, etc. >There were some issues regarding a problem with white residue >appearing on the ABS motherboard which caused catastrophic failures. >Can anyone add any more details about the problem and/or solution.

The Snow/dual ethernet (second model) had the white residue problem, but it's much less common that the defective capacitor problem in the Graphites. >Are there any other problems that I should be aware of with the Snow ABS? None that I know of.
