Today we went to MicroCenter and finally picked up the Mac Mini that I've been saving for almost since the day they were announced. As luck would have it, I got a better model than I was planning for. Turns out MC has had several open-box Minis on clearance from the holidays. They had a 1.25GHz base model for $425 and a 1.42GHz SuperDrive marked at $629 on Tues. when I went in to scout things out. That's only $30 more than I was planning to spend on a non-SD 1.42GHz Mini. But, we go in tonight and they have two more Minis behind the glass.

This is a test of the blogging system. This is only a test. If this had been an actual blog entry real content would follow.
