I got word from a friend of a friend in the film industry that Lions Gate Films was selling off a bunch of gorgeous 23-inch HD Apple monitors. I investigated, and though these things retail for CAN $3100, we bought one at a truly insane discount. As a bonus, Halle Berry may have brushed her slender fingers across this badboy while attempting to act feline and sexy. It was apparently used as set decoration on Catwoman.

Regular readers will know that I place very little value on Ms. Berry’s, or most other celebrity’s touch. I just thought it would make an amusing title to this post.
We had to go buy a dongle-thingy to convert the monitor’s ADC signal to DVI for our PowerBook. Like all Apple peripherals, it was absurdly over-priced: CAN $150! This follows on the heels of the $50 power source we bought for the PowerBook a while back. Fifty buck for a fancy-looking cable. Bastards.
um, so are there any more available? *whimper*
Sorry, I checked and they’re all gone.
Bastards indeed – that’s what I thought when I read that you had bought one of those babies!
I want one.
If hear the sale again please let us know by making a posting.
I assumed Halle Berry was in a great caring relationship with views of a really long marriage. Seems like there aren’t things like blissful marriages resembling mine any more – 20 years wed and even now on cloud nine.
