don't tell me you actually sit and watch out the windows for any sign of a fedex truck...lol

That picture was actually pure luck. I went to the kitchen to get some juice and there it was. Grabbed my camera just in time to snap those shots. But I was impatiently waiting as I had some other important errands to run before the work day was over. All the other pics that I took were about four hours after it arrived.

Going around town with the knowledge that my PowerBook was just sitting on the table at home was the most torture after waiting so long.

Ah well...it's here now and that's all that matters.

Heh, by that time you'll be grinning even more when you can purchase a dual processor notebook or something insane like that. A year, in technology, changes *a lot*.

This is the 3rd set of pictures I saw with a FedEx guy showing up. I bet they are more spooked by Mac users waiting in the bushes with their cameras than rabid chihuahuas.

One guy had a fedex and ups truck in his driveway, periphs arrived at the same time. Soon folks will start using (IRMS) image reconition motion sensing technology.

Funny you say that...My dad wants to look into developing something like that for security purposes. Or he could just hire me, huh?

Waiting for the Fedex man to arrive so you can take a photo is a sign of aserious Macaddict
