< Of course, we're hoping to get one of the semi-infamous surplus Henrico County, VA iBooks for $50 next Tuesday, so maybe I'll need to spend another $50 on a mouse, ya think?

I begged my niece in Richmond to get one for me. She says there is no way in he$$ she will stand in the line for me. I even tried a bribe. Didn't work.
Let us know how yours turns out.
Well, they had to move the sale from the Henrico County school system warehouse to a building out at the State Fairgrounds complex (i.e., Richmond International Raceway). Sale starts at 9, lineup starts at 7, and supposedly they will have security out there to prevent overnight camping. They fielded 1500 inquiries the first day the sale was announced. Apparently, even though these things are probably loaded down with teenage pr0n and God-knows-what-else, lots of other people consider a used iBook for $50 a pretty good deal.
Here's hoping we get a good one, if we get one.
