You just ain't to bright there, man! He meant putting the
Mac inside a
shipping container. Not using a Mac for a shipping
container.
Make a cradle padded with carpet to set the Mac on and
then slide it
right into the shipping container. Then pad it out with
styrofoam
peanuts or something like that. It would survive without a
scratch even
in a hurricane.


Oh boy, the blind leading the blind.

just put it on it's cheap flimsy trailer and roll into the
container. I believe you can get two in a 40' er. You have
to '69' them.

Actually being able to do that was a specific design requirement. They
ship them all over the world like that. What's the cost of a 40 to
Australia, about 5 or 6K?


That's what I was thinking...if there's such a big market for them in
Australia, and the markup can double the US price...why not ship half a
dozen on a regular container ship (two to a container). A lot quicker and
safer than sailing one at a time.
