...head to Brenda Anton, a furniture store that, conveniently, doesn't even have prices. Gela picks up a set of green dishes and "art glass" that I'm pretty sure was just a display. Meanwhile, Pam is having a discussion with Brenda that the Fluffians decide I can't be privy to. I feel like I'm hanging out with the cool, smart, attractive, rich girls in high school, only they occasionally have to answer my questions...

...whisper-quiet 25 db, does it make enough noise for most people to hear. Designer Jonathan Ive, who shaped the original iMac and iPod, has gone as minimalist as possible with this machine. There is no separate computer tower or power supply; everything is contained in the display unit. CDs and dvds slot in on the side of the screen. The speakers are hidden on the bottom, designed to bounce sound off your desk. Throw in the optional Bluetooth wireless keyboard and mouse, and the whole thing needs only one cable: the power cord. A minor gripe is that these...
