How about 100 dollars and public mockery on the warpath. Whatever the "warpath" is called then

Are you sure that you'll have the same computer in 5 years? Lol. Either way I agree with you, I don't see the name changing in 5 years either.

You drink a few of my Apple Martinis and you will realize you need a man card to handle them.
