Hey Mike,
TOTALLY understand on the Macs and costing more $$$$$. Yeah. Someday...
(I LOVE their new ad campaign now with the Mac guy--he's the perfect actor for it--and I hope they sell LOTS MORE MACS!)

Anyway:
Chris Daughtry!!!
He left American Idol 4th place I believe, BUT HE IS THE MOST SUCCESSFUL ARTIST FROM LAST SEASON. He is doing VERY well selling LOTS of records, and if he wants one of your songs, buddy, DO IT!!!!!

He also sounds GREAT and is one of the coolest sounds out there right now. On his way up for sure.

They had him back to perform on the AI Final just a couple of weeks ago. I like his stuff. I haven't bought an album yet, but that just cuz' of $$... gotta feed the kids, you know...
:-D ("disposable income"? what IS that?) LOL.

Linda
