You weren't supposed to tell anyone about the free laptops! Atleast that is what I was told!

Just kidding, I got spam this weekend too through a PM.

Let me get this straight. I was not the only one. My main and first thought was do I even want a Mac, for free? I guess I decided no.

Edit: But I think it is pretty clear who will not be getting a PM about my underground subversive Xotic newsletter I have been working on (hint, Mr Stuckinabox is now Mr Notonthemailinglist.;):D).
