Right. WTF.
I'm in love with power books. I probably won't buy one, for although I'm not raving anti Mac, I do like playing games.
Anyway.
Wang super ultra power book in the states cost 2,999.00 USD, which if we convert to NZD at 0.6 (yay) gets us to 4,9998.33. OK, more than I'm willing to pay, but alright alirght. MagnumMac in CHCH sells this beastie for 5,999 NZD. PLUS GST. Plus GST? WTF this is already $1,000 more than it would cost me in America, and I you don't even have the excuse of having to add GST to it.
Bastards, you'll all suffer. What do they do? Send a MagnumMac on a return flight to LA to pick one up? Where does $1000 come from. Bollocks.
On the other hand, if they are sending people to LA to pick up laptops, I so want that job.
RANT!

Better to hide your shame (HIDE IT I SAY!) than to reveal it to all and sundry on the internet, where it might be used for perfidious blackmail purposes, surely...
On the plus side, I guess the width of a CD drive would be about right for you.
