Yeah, I just saw impossibly large single prim objects in the Newcomb Sandbox just now. Are these the fabled "mega prims" I've heard about? While we're on the subject, anyone care to tell me what that was all about? I'm very curious.

Those mega-prims were created by exploiting a glitch in the building system that once existed, and no longer does. The LL client is not designed to handle them properly. They may still work for some uses, but since LL does NOT in any way officially support such oversized prims, using them is an almost certain ticket to future problems, when some future release of SL makes them impossible to rez or to use.

Spread the word, they are free here:

Do NOT pay $500L for an inferior set with limited permissions (the free ones have more prims and full permissions).
