“Banged for the buck.” was penned precisely on 29 April, 2004 04:00 PM, which happened to be a Thursday. but you know what? dullneon.com's random notes has now moved to a new location.
Not long after having bought their new machines, Richard & Dunstan both got screwed over by the recently launched new line of speed-bumped G4 portables. Ironically, at about the same time, thanks to the new line of machines, I got my 2nd-hand iBook for quite a cheap price every new release creates a downward pressure on the value of the older machines on the used market and I definitely got lucky (albeit with just a G3-600 iBook).
this was published on 29 April in the year 2004, which was a Thursday. anyway, all this is old and archived. everything has been now been moved, so head on down to the revamped almost daily random notes (unless of course you like this old stuff too much to part with it).
