Uhhhhhh... I have not seen it at any computer stores.. But then again.. I don't go to computer stores.. It may be computer generated, But reguardless, It is still pretty cool..
Thats just my 2 cents.. And yes, I have also read that people have seen this as early as last yr... but its still new to me, and several others as well.:yawn:
