G4 Cube Panic Buying Rush is On

according to posts to a variety of fora to which we subscribe. We have called the G4 Cube the best general personal computer ever made but more reports of the Cube's demise in favor of a rumored new iMac. The latest is MacUser UK. Our Editor-in-Chief succumbed to the panic after searching on line stores and finding few of the 450 MHz DVD models still available as a refurb. Putting his money where just his keyboard has been, he ordered one of the last two 450 MHz DVD G4 Cube's available from Smalldog.Com, an Apple refurb for $1099 with a 1-year warranty and AppleCare for another $209, for his personal desktop computer and potentially a collector's piece alongside his PowerBook 2400c.
