DAMN! I wish I lived nearby. I'd buy all of them and be a rich man.

Nice! Most laptops aren't worth the money to me, but for $50 I'd be all over them puppies.

into the darkness an endless flight

I'm going, but I'm sure the crowd will be enormous.

Yeah, I sent the story to my Dad (who lives nearby), but even if he goes I'm not convinced he'll get one. Given that there's still over a week until the sale, I'm guessing that either the school board will come to its senses and cancel it... or 10,000 people will show up the day of and there'll be a minor riot. Seriously, I'm betting 10,000+ people. Any other guesses?

10,001

It'd be cool to pick one up if i lived anywhere near there, but I have a feeling the wait won't be worth it for most people.

I heard that some folks are planning on CAMPING OUT starting today(saturday, July 30th).

I think we can all forget it.

VCU students within 45 minutes,
richmond 40 minutes away,
DC & Fredricksburg about an hour,

so you can pretty much forget it.

It got moved to the Raceway. And no one will be allowed to camp out.
