How will you spend your Apple Store credit?

Attention, reckless fanboys with no will power or self control early iPhone adopters. You've certainly heard by now that your $100US Apple Store credit is available. Now that you've got it, the question is, what will you do with it? We're guessing that most customers will use the credit towards something that costs more that a hundred bucks (softening the financial blow for Apple - if you could even call it that).

What's your decision? iPod nano? Slick new keyboard? Maxed out Mac Pro and cinema display? The comments are open.

While we're on the subject, remember that the deadline for the full $200 claim is 9/19.

My 4th icase. The first 3 have broken. On second thought, no icase, very poor product! Maybe an itunes gift card!

That new Bluetooth keyboard looks pretty sweet, but I might be practical and use it for Leopard. Also considering Roxio Toast and wireless Mighty Mouse.

VMWare Fusion with 2-day shipping = ~$95 :)

You can buy some non-apple software through the Apple store :)

This is a silly question, and I can't believe more of you haven't answered this the obvious way, since:

Leopard (Home Basement Basic Outhous Edition that is) $129
Apple iPhone Credit $100

Leopard (Ultimate) $29! Yeah! Here I come, and i won't wait this time, because under the hood, this is looking killer, despite the hu-hum feature additions. hah hah Vista whatever version
