Thanks Dina!  That is indeed a very good deal.  I also found a  
video/mp3 player by Toshiba for $258.00, but, again, I'd have to find a  
way to make it Mac-compatible.

Jensen Whats-his-name is quite pretty.  I like Supernatural on  
every-now-and-then basis.  It's a convenient kind of show because the  
individual episodes are fun and engaging even if you don't know the  
back story.

It also took me awhile to get into Veronica Mars.  The first several  
episodes didn't really grab me -- then later I saw the middle episodes  
and started watching a bit more obsessively, and then by the last six  
or so I somehow morphed into a crazed fan. (Crazed!)

But, I'm pretty prone to obsession, personally, so maybe that's just  
me. ^_~
