Just another example of someone who thinks he's "cool" and "with it" and
is, well..... "not". All I care about is: can I figure out what it is,
and is it a good price? Whether he's an incredible dork or not is just
another possible source of amusement. ;)

I likek the disclaimer, too. No clue. Wait, a couple of my Unix systems
have mice! Shit! Does this mean I'm not a true uber geek! Ahhh! Identity
crisis!

Where the f@#$ did "uber geek" come from anyway? Sounds obnoxious,
historical German overtones and all...

I think I'd not buy from him just on general principle... But you guys
already came to that conclusion before I started this tirade, didn't
you? Geez, I hate being that last one to figure something out...
