Today's Woot is refurbished Motorola Xoom tablets. Could be a good deal.

There's a class action lawsuit against Apple for certain MacBook & MacBookPro owners about a faulty magsafe power adapter. [link]
David, you will find them by opening the hdd icon on the desktop, for one.
Belated thanks, Dan.
New question: We used to have an iMac G4 (aka, iLamp). It came with these speakers which have a "mini-jack" that went into the G4.
But now I've got a MiniMac which does not have a mini-jack input, but one that's 2.5mm (according to the Apple Store I went to today to get an adapter). They didn't have one and sent me to RadioShack. They didn't have one either.
So now I figure I should just order it online, but I'm not sure exactly what size the mini-jack plug is on the Harmon Kardon speakers to go into the Mini-Mac. Apple Store seemed to think it might be 1.5mm, but I'd rather know exactly while ordering.
Googling on "1.5mm to 2.5mm isn't helping me much so I figured y'all might have a clue.
this suggests that the iMac G4 has a special jack, that was powered and DIGITAL.
Perhaps the speakers need more than just a jack...
That is correct. Those speakers were an oddball experiment on Apple's part and as far as I know they will only work that specific model of Mac.
Question about AT&T cell charges for Text/Instant Messaging. If I don't use the $20/month unlimited option, it's $0.20 per message. Is the $0.20 charged for both messages sent AND received, or just messages sent?
Generally both.
Each message, as I've always understood plans, yes. Doesn't matter which direction the messages go.
What Cass said.
Oh, and it is bullshit.
And highway robbery.
Other question--if I get a new iPhone, but don't want to change anything about my plan, can I do that? (I don't have unlimited data, but I do have the no-longer-extant texting plan between "unlimited" and "none" (or 500?))
