Most Best Buy stores don’t know how to add a password to that. :-P

How does someone making a typo end up as the top story on your front page?

Only the 17″ has the incorrect Win98 screenshot.

Especially now with the fact that people are trying to get windows to work on the new intel macs.

I just had a big blow up with Bust Buy over a bunk TV they sold me. Their service is a joke.

Could it be virtual PC.

Seems someone in Best Buy’s marketing department neglected to do some research. Wow! An Apple PowerBook preloaded with Windows ‘98! Gosh, I don’t remember Steve Jobs mentioning anything about a “Windows ‘98″ PowerBook during his recent Macworld keynote [...]
