Just got it off ebay. $93 for the macbook air. Now heading out to buy a binder for rotations that will hold the computer, while I back up my macbook pro for migration!

Not that I want to get into the whole argument of AppleCare on eBay here in this thread, but did you get a boxed copy or just the code? Thanks.

Boxed. Didn't know there was an argument about it. I bought applecare for 2-3 macs in the past with no problems.

Yeah, there's a lot of talk about AppleCare on eBay, apparently some people think that the code only sales are created with code generators, etc., that Apple requires the serial number on the bottom of the box in addition to the code if an issue arises to the validity of the AppleCare and so on. Here's a closed thread with all the gory details.

Anyway, thanks and congratulations on the MBA, it looks nice.

I think if they had Keygens for AppleCare, I would know about it already.

Agreed. I got my iPad on release day but hadn't been able to find the official case in stores until yesterday.

Wow, really? I've seen them in multiple Best Buys and Apple Stores out here for weeks (or possibly the last couple of months).

No love for Minnesota from Apple I guess........

Went school/rotation shopping:

Awesome case/document holder for the MBA

Congrat's on the MacBook Air Peapody. That is an excellent case for it, would suit my needs perfectly too, easy to grab and go.

Did you buy that at Staples?


So now you're sporting a 15" MBP hi-res anti glare and a MacBook Air, nice!! That's two of the best laptop screens on the market right now, (imo).

How are you liking the Air so far, how does it compare to the Asus you tried out?

I try to avoid Best Buy and there isn't an official Apple store where I go to school so I never saw one. They probably have been in stock for a while, but my on-campus Apple section finally started carrying them. They usually keep all Apple stuff stocked, but this is the first time I saw the iPad case available there.

My math/physics teachers will be really happy with these purchases:

And most importantly, why..

I've been doing math work with pens for ages, and I do make mistakes. :D

You know, I just love the 99 cent store. For a buck I get a pretty decent mechanical and a pack of lead that costs more by itself at say, Wal-Mart. XD Heaven forbid someone goes and buys the same at Costco LMAO.

Picked up these over the last few days. Kick-Ass has to be one of the best films of the year & Linkin Park's new album is a complete change of direction for the band which will probably take people by surprise because it sounds nothing like Linkin Park and not in a good way it is pretty bad.

Disappointing to hear. I was pretty disappointed with MtM. I assume you'd say this one is even worse? :(

Shame too, because the only artists I actually "buy" from are Angels & Airwaves, Eminem, and Linkin Park. Looks like I'll be dropping one of the list after this album... :rolleyes:

Meteora was their last decent album. I used to enjoy Deftones as well, but after their self-titled that I no longer car. Too many bands try to change direction, only failing to do so well.

Actually, I have been really only going back in time for good albums. Jeff Beck has caught my attention as of late.

Thanks Entatirg! Loving it so far! It has the glam and wow factor that is different than the Asus. Right now I am doing a clean install and migrating my MBP time machine over. So I will let you know. And yes, love both of my computers. So far the gloss of the macbook air isn't that annoying yet haha.

And yes I bought that case at staples. I just brought the mba in to try it out with the different portfolios. I saw someone else on the web do it after googling macbook air cases...Like it alot!

Anyway, last purchase: strawberry banana smoothie from mcdonalds...it's really good and reminds me of jamba juice! Don't have any jamba's here in maryland so it curbs the craving!
