Whoa, shocking news!!

I talked to someone in my school if they knew Tony Davilio, and he said he took guitar lessons from hm. I found out Tony lives only a half hour away from me in Vineland, Nj!! I might contact him for the twc songs that aired in april and july 2007

Wow! That's neat.

I've just gone ahead and sent emails to all three sellers. I'm really doubting that the PowerMac G3 is still available because the listing is over two weeks old, but the iMac and MacBook may be possibilities.

And...this one: MacBook for $435.

I recently upgraded to a 17 inch MacBook Pro so I am selling my 13.3 inch MacBook for $435. The laptop has 2.16GHz processor Intel Core 2 Duo, large 120 Gb hard, 2 Gb memory, iSight camera, Super Drive. The price is $435.

Think I should pursue any of these sales?

I'd go for the MacBook. The price is incredibly cheap compared to the original price (more than half), and those specs are awesome. If you go for the MacBook, you'd get a hell of a lot more bang for the buck, so to speak.

That's what I was thinking, but it just seems too good to be true for that price. I want to email the seller first ask ask if everything works with it and ask if there is any warranty (Apple Care or whatever) still on it. I don't want to dish out $400+ on anything and have it break on me right after I get it.

Also, I plan to inquire about that $20 iMac. That definitely looks like a deal.

During the Weekly Planner, Dave had the wrong red clicker, so he had to have Jeff come in and give him the correct black clicker.

It seems that TWC's recently launched/relaunched a new site http://www.weather.com/tv/. I've seen it mentioned various times today after Weather Ready and Health segments

Dave and Jeff are hosting Day Planner/Weather Center once again today. BTW, anyone ever hear the term "grease up them shovels"?

I was looking on craigslist yesterday, and I saw a local listing for a Blue & White Power Mac G3 for $100... but the listing is nearly two weeks old so its probably gone by now. Does $100 for it seem like a good deal?

The specs are:

Power Mac G3, good condition, $100 OBO
tower only
300 MHz PowerPC G3
320 MB memory (1 x 64 MB, 1 x 256 MB)
80 GB Western Digital hard drive (with Mac OS X v10.4.11 installed)
8 MB VRAM video
CD-ROM Drive, Zip 100 Drive
Ethernet

Think I should contact the seller anyway to see if it's still available?

EDIT:

I just came across a newer listing for an iMac G3 for $20. Is this a good deal?

Imac G3 333mhz tray loader (blueberry), 64mb RAM, 6gb hard drive, OS 9

No keyboard or mouse, but ANY USB Keyboard and mouse will work.

And...this one: MacBook for $435.

It's fine for me too. It's probably a DNS problem.

What? Do you guys go to an elementary school or something?  They're just words. Get over it and stop complaining about them. If you don't like the words, just ignore them.

My laptop is really p**sing me off at the moment. The wireless isn't working, and it doesn't recover properly from sleep mode anymore. 

Call em up

What's wrong with its sleep mode?

Whenever it goes into sleep mode for the second time after a reboot, it never recovers, so I have to hold down the power button and restart it.

At 12:01 AM ET, they used the old-style thinner lower thirds (not sure which show they were from), but appeared to be from the 2003-2005 era. I'll have to get a shot of it when they re-air it at 2:00 AM ET.
