Did you get the newest model with a built-in camera and remote? That one's really cool. And have you hooked it up to your TV yet?

Thats the one (17inch model). How do I hook it up to my TV?
I'm sitting here trying to figure out some of my new goodies. It is fun and frustrating all at once.
Speaking of TVs, I guess I'm typing on what WAS going to be a new wide screen TV. I've been saving a little while for a new TV, but when the old mac gave up last night that $$ got re_earmarked.
I need a computer worse than I need a TV.

You had to go and say it. Fry's. The only good thing about Fry's other than the fact that they have everything you want to look at is the look on the guy's face when you say "Hell No!" when he asks to see your receipt when leaving.

Not many people know that it's within their rights to refuse that receipt check.

Yes indeed at Costco you have to show your receipt. At public stores I think it opens up all sorts of prior restraint and probable cause issues.
