New Excellent. Thanks very much.
J is going on a trip in a month or so and would really like a cheap Mac to take with her. I have to think on this some more...

Thanks.

New Better order NOW...
there is at least a three week wait.

Get the large SSD if you are worried about space, its cheaper from Dell than most other places.

Get memory for $25 from NewEgg. $129 for OSX from Apple Store.

Right now there is a $20 discount / instant savings so the same machine I just bought it $424 vs $444 grrr of course.

Ummm expected delivery date for me... 3/25/09
