Did something happen with Sequoia and sub-pixel font smoothing? For whatever reason my 1x display looks pretty good lately and doesn't want to make me toss it in the garbage.

If you ever wanted one might be a good time to pick one up, if nothing else it makes for an attractive piece of tech art on your desk.

They are available on eBay for < $20 a pop. If you want to get 128GB, and understand the downside, not a bad price.
