I think people are exhibiting just a bit much animosity because the upgrade is not as inexpensive as one would like. I think people in manufacturing will have a better appreciation of the cost. What I cannot understand is if those who bought early never liked the machine or felt it didn't fit their needs----why buy it? Why not wait 6 mos.? I never buy the first anything. Perhaps, the childish desire to be 'the first on the block with a Macintosh' prevailed over the common or consumer sense of those early buyers. { that should certainly generte some fire }
