The other problem is not worth of a computer but shipping it. I actually wouldn't mind having a MacTV (I used to manage a lab full of LC 520/575s back when I was in fourth grade--some time ago) but the cost of shipping that thing to me would exceed the cost of the unit itself. Actually I'd like a KBB for computer stuff too, maybe a wiki-ish layout. I wouldn't mind setting one up if others could add to it. I'm not sure what the road apples go for... I have(had) a road apple at home, a Powerbook 1400/117 with no cache. It was DOG slow, until I upgraded it with a G3/400. Now it would be fast, had I owned a external SCSI CDROM.
