IPO just mentioned on CNBC; I believe they said the price would be between $15 and $18.

Something interesting that I didn't know is that the mail-order company charges the product manufacturer for the listing in its catalog. A big ad in one of those catalogs is expensive! And that's what lets these guys charge below-retail prices.

I had a bad experience with MacConnection in 1995 and haven't ordered from them since. But I also get busy signals from AOL and their stock's doing pretty well.
