That's the same unit that IBM has been flogging on eBay with a reserve of
US$1,300 and there appears to have been very few takers at that price. For
US$999 from eCost I'd say that's a helluva deal, espeically when you consider
that shipping is FREE!
What's also interesting is the fact that they are a "current" item on the
ShopIBM site for US$1,929.

I've been looking very closely at these units for a while now and, as my 19"
Mitsubishi went up in flames yesterday, perhaps the Gods are trying to tell me
something.

James
