It's sitting in my hallway upstairs.

A 20 inch iMac Intel Dual-Core. 20 inches of crisp Apple photo processing nirvana.

But my wife won't let me open it yet. It's a birthday present, you see. And my birthday isn't until Saturday. Plus we're going to be out of the house all weekend at her parent's house. AAGH! It's taunting me! It's calling my name right now. I wonder if I can get Photoshop installed on it and get it back in the box before she comes home? :)

A loving wife that buys such a beautiful gift and then leaves it in the open to torture you. God , I love women :-)

Just remember what she did to you on this birthday because I am sure hers is coming up... Turn abouts fair play, right?! :-)

hmm, what if when you open it up, it's empty? hehe
OK, I'm just green with envy :p

I've already "tested" the box, and it's heavy enough... I think she just filled it with bricks and hid the Mac. :)

I have to say it is a wonderful thing, we got our just a few weeks ago and it is worth the wait.

That's kinda what I was thinking. At least that is what I would do. Scrounge the box of something dh really, really wanted, then weight it to be similar, but have something totally different in the box. WooHOOO

Or, you could turn it around:
Take the iMac out of the box and replace it with something old and broken.

Act excited when you open it up, and then confused and angry as you "realize" she's been ripped off.

All the excitement will distract her from the fact that you took the iMac out and have it secretly running in the closet.

PS: Happy Birtday!
