Presenting...Draco!

[John Walton]

Hi all,

I'm typing this from Draco, my new Cube. He's *gorgeous*. I love everything
about him -- the smooth, slot-loading DVD/CD drive (I'm going to head over
to the public library tonight to rent some DVDs I've not seen in ages), the
simple, clean lines of both him and his monitor (as yet unnamed), the oomph
that the tiny speakers have -- I'm a serious music-lover, and these speakers
are better than my Bose sound system -- the ease with which he comes apart
when I want to install more RAM (arriving tomorrow)...I love everything
about him. ::strokes Draco::

FWIW, I had an absolutely delightful experience with Outpost.com. Over on a
computer list I belong to, Outpost have a bad name for not shipping the
newest Apple laptop when they said they were going to, but I was thoroughly
impressed. I find them particularly advantageous because they make no charge
for 2nd Day Shipping, with only a $13 surcharge for overnight, which I took
advantage of. Combine this with the $200 I saved on NY State Sales Tax by
buying interstate, and I'm a very happy and slightly-less-cash-strapped
bunny. Disclaimer: I have no connection with Outpost.com. Neither does
HPFGU.
