So, I've been wanting to get one for a while.....was looking at Best Buy's ad, and they have a 250 GB portable for $139 or a 320 GB regular one for $129. They're both by Western Digital....are they any good of a brand?

I kinda prefer the portable one, because I dont need THAT much memory, and my Macbook has 160 GB. I just wanted one for occassional backup purposes.

Also, any other good specials?

EDIT: and just to piss off Impala....I want a GAY ONE!! Something in pretty colors!! laugh.gif

But that's the thing...I already have an Airport Extreme.

So I would have to go and sell that and try to get $150 for it, and then pay the other half for the 500 GB HD feature of the Time Capsule?

And when is TC coming out anyway?
