Barbri not accepting donations

So, I finally got around to signing up for a Barbri course. Yeah, I'm lazy. I got SF Saint Mary's Live, so apparently that's not yet filled up for those of you even lazier than I.

Upon surfing to the "Make a Payment" page, I saw this priceless caveat: "NOTE: The payment amount cannot exceed the Balance Due."

Seriously Barbri?!? You're already draining me of well over $3,000 and you feel like you have to warn me of overpaying?!? Well, I guess it's your loss. I was totally going to make a donation to your practical monopoly.

Anyway, where's everyone else taking the courses? Anybody hear any news about where the vaguely titled "Berkeley/East Bay" course will be held?

And alums, what are your opinions? What locations are good or bad? Pros and cons of the live vs. taped courses? Should I actually study for the bar or just drop out now, brush up on my Spanish, and head South of the border to avoid student loans debt?
