Was anyone expecting a different answer? I think Marshalls simply took advantage of the pre-Christmas sales slump and scooped up a bunch of excess iPads. Probably won't happen after 4.2 is released and the supply gets tight again.

First off congrats on your new purchase!
On to your questions..
Can I use a Sata drive run from a PCI Sata controller card as the boot drive?
Yes you can. I am booted from a SATA drive on a PCI card as I type this. For your needs I recommend the 4 channel PCI SATA card FirmTek sells.
Will the power supply be up to running 6 hard drives inside? (4 in standard locations and one in each 5.25 bay)
Yes. The Dual 867 has a 400 Watt PSU and can easily handle 6 drives. All modern drives consume around 12-15 Watts so even 6 would only be around 75-90 Watts. Unless you want to use more than one SATA PCI card you will have to make 2 of the drives PATA.
Are there any perennial issues with this model I should look out for?
The MDD is the most troublesome G4 tower but keep in mind the repair/recall on these was only for about 6% of them which is very good compared to G5 towers that range from 11-32% of systems needing repair. I have owned 2 MDD in the past and based on that and other research I have done the Dual 867MHz is the most rock solid of them all. The MDD's main issues were fan noise and some of the PSU's die after just a few years. There are a few guides around though on how to rig a standard 24 pin ATX PSU to power an MDD.
Considering it's about 8 years old now and still running you definitely have a good one.
I want to give it a good going over before I get it up and running. I was going to clean and reapply Arctic silver to the CPU/heatsink interface, upgrade to 2Gb RAM, replace the rather noisy fan with a higher CFM quieter version and anything else you guys can recommend

wow that is tempting! i'm tellin ya, if you can afford it, gotta get that EVGA SR-2!
Don't you need the equivalent Xeon processors for the SR2?
Yeah that would go so beautifully in my Lian Li case :cool: I'd spend $200 if I can fine one for that price.

Android will be on more things by the end of the year. iOS is restricted to apple products. But we are already seeing the creativity that people are using android for. Being that it is open source and easy to modify and write on we have many things. Android now powers eReaders, TVs, Video games, and even a microwave

That is a tremendous amount of storage. Does anyone know if this is even comparable to Google?
Well based on the news that Apple's new NC data center was the largest for a single company. I would say yes.

If the top 50% are declaring earnings equivalent to 88% of the total, it seems entirely proportionate that they should be paying 95% of the total tax. Their true earnings are probably vastly more in percentage terms, anyway.

I have XM satellite in my car - very excellent. I listen to iTunes in my office to one of the trance stations - same songs very good. But iTunes has very few of the better songs.
The list the Bee Gees as number one for their Dance Albums?!? Please add more relevant electronic music to the iTunes store. Most of it was created on a Mac!

Enough of this Tekken X Street Fighter nonsense, the re-release of one of the greatest fighting games ever is coming. And now we have online play :D This is almost certainly going to be on PSN/XBLA, but I doubt it'll be out before next spring.
Now, about that small matter of a Power Stone collection with online play....
:apple:

I just downloaded a photo from ipadwallgallery.com using my iPad2. I wanted to use it as my wallpaper. So I give up; where did it download to? I went to photos and it isn't there. Sorry for what is probably a simple question but I am stumped.
Thanks

I have a black apple pro mouse. Works fine. Just don't use it. Other than some dust, it looks and performs like new. Price is $10 shipped. I'll even dust it off for you.

Hi,
I will be watching the live coverage of Macworld, but there are time differences, so what time should I log on to see the coverage?
Thanks. :)
