Well, there you go. He can't use it, but hey! Who cares?

I just want to know when they'll start putting lights in those things...just picture the amazing neon glow emitting from that shiny shell....*L*A customer of ours was shocked the other day to find that he cannot configure his DSL modem/router because it uses a serial connection, and the iMac has no serial port. He's off in search of a USB->Serial connector....heheh...

Gah! Don't buy computer stuff in stores. That's what mail-order is for. I just looked through a few catalogs (MacMall, MacZone, MacWarehouse, MacConnection) and they all have CorelDraw. ------------------ http://frankg.dgne.com/ "You're a real colonel, right?" - Taco Bell Chihuahua to Colonel Sanders, facing an army of battle droids

Well, there are red iMacs, but they certainly don't qualify as pink. That is, any more than a power button can eject a floppy disk. ------------------ http://frankg.dgne.com/ "You're a real colonel, right?" - Taco Bell Chihuahua to Colonel Sanders, facing an army of battle droids

My humblest apologies, I stand corrected. Martha Stewart does not own a 'pink' iWhack, she owns a STRAWBERRY iWhack. Yes, you heard right. they don't even come in COLORS--they come in FLAVORS!!!! *rolls eyes and mumbles something about what'd you'd expect from a company called 'Apple"*http://www.apple.com/imac/ads/poster.html ahem:

*will refrain from bopping the people making comments about eject buttons* if there is a button beside a slot into which one inserts a disk, it is only LOGICAL to assume that said button would eject the disk. granted, there was an 'on/off' sign on it, but THE DAMN THING WAS NEXT TO THE DISK DRIVE FOR GOODNESS SAKES!!!*SIGH* okay. i'm done.
