There’s a general rule about new computers and software: wait until the pioneer purchasers get their computers, and charge in there playing with the new hardware/software (almost always inherently buggy).

When those pioneers get the proverbial arrows out of their backs (aka bugs), buy your computer. I waited until 6 months after the early Vista computers came out, bought my Vista laptop, and had very few problems.

The brown Zune was flushed.

Correction John, the college is Seton Hill.

“Seton Hill is a Catholic school located in Greensburg, Pa. It has an undergraduate enrollment of about 1,732 students, meaning the school could be purchasing more than 400 iPads and MacBooks this coming year.”

Seton Hall is in NJ.

A Pirate needs to send John a hoodie from South Orange.

What division does Seton Hill’s basketball team play?

I have to admit I would really love one but I feel the second gen will be much better.

Seton HILL, not HALL. You made a verbal typo.

Also, the athletic thingie is NOT the big deal at Seton. Do some research before commenting.

Yeah, the Google prime line item has Athletic as its top item, but that’s an ALPHABETIC LIST, not the first item on the school’s agenda.

By this criteria, every school in the universe is primarily an athletic major.

B’b'b’but what about the “Best Baccalaureate Colleges in the North Region” by U.S. News & World Report. Naah, just a basketball case.

Geez.

Looks like the Chinese already have an iPad clone.

Brown Zune = Redmond Turd ? Must have been a slow seller !!! Jobs was right when he said of M$ “They have no taste!!!”

Screw the iPad, I’m waiting for the WePad.

It’s bigger and it’s from Deutschland!

I believe that would be an iPad crone.
