For the Love of Mac

Several people were injured this morning as thousands of people rushed to buy used Apple iBooks for $50 each from the Henrico County school system.

The Associated Press is reporting that a stampede broke out when the gates to the Richmond International Raceway, where the sale was being held, were opened at 7 a.m. The county was offering 1,000 used iBooks for $50 each to Henrico residents, who began lining up overnight. Several people are said to have suffered minor injuries in the stampede. Sales were limited to one computer per person.
