iBook G3 - You'll be missed.
I would put allot of it in the bank, finish my tattooing, buy a macbook pro, and then give some to a few charities, probably for animals, and I'd give some to help fight blindness. I'd buy my lady a ring (maybe) give some to family, pay off some debts and get an apartment and pay it off for a year or two.

Pay for my certifications and then i'd be good i think. maybe help start college, i'd probably have a good change at getting a job then haha.

Immediately it would go in the bank. Then it would go probably for home improvements.

Finally I'd buy Apple and double Steve Jobs' salary.

Put most of it in the bank. Use a little bit to maybe buy a Wii accessory or two. Use a little bit more to buy a nice TV.
