I'm pretty sure that I just bought an MFC-101. I just clicked on Cliff's link about 5 being available right now with no discount (first come, first served). I almost didn't believe it. I saw that (at the time) over 38 people had viewed his post before me. But, I took a chance that 5 people hadn't bought, yet, and went to the fractal website. I found the link to purchase something, selected the MFC-101, and it let me in!
I got all the way through the purchasing process - including giving my card info, mailing address, etc. Man, I am psyched if this means that I got through. I know that by not waiting for my name to be called from the waiting list that I'm costing myself an extra hundred bucks. But, I was waiting forever for this thing and couldn't resist the opportunity to get one now. If I'm a beta tester and have to go through bug growing pains, then so-be-it.
I only hope that I didn't just cost myself the $100 waiting list discount for nothing. My worst fear is that 5 people beat me to it and they just didn't get to disable the ability to purchase one. If so, this might mean that I won't get one, just spent $749+, lost my place on the waiting list, and will no longer be eligible for the $100 off.

I'm hoping that I get more confirmation that I am, in fact, one of the 5. Cliff?
