Good morning/afternoon. I just woke up(mom woke me
). Thanks for the commentary and for a moment there I thought it was going to break into a philisophical discussion. (Sigh of relief) Yesterday was a learning experience, let me tell you. Things I learned:
1.Don't put laptops in luggage. Laptop was fine going in but didnt seem to have recognizable boot drive coming out. Must ran thru a giant magnet...
2. Mac ram slots are extremely tight. Took me like 20 mins to finally get the ram in. Why are PC slots so loose and easy to work with? Sounds like an issue of quetionable parenting...
3. Who knew that the HD had to be formatted before it could be chosen as a destination drive for the OSX recovery discs? I thought my WD drive was one of those typical DOA guys. It took me a while and even giving up before deciding to give the drive another try after I was in OS X to finally get the "drive not readable, do you want to initialize?" YAY! So I did a reinstall and order is as it should be.
4. Maybe I'm paranoid but I don't like how apple mailed my stuff w/o no brown covers around it. I just don't like the idea of all the mail people knowing exactly what I'm getting. Wierd I know.
5. The PM is smaller and alot heavier than I thought. While I have seen one before, it still suprised me pulling it out the box how small it is. And the thing is just heavy!
6. The mighty mouse isn't bad. The ball is kinda interesting. It doesn't seem to work well over plain surfaces(the apple manual). The keyboard I'll have to switch up very soon.
Thing I'm still wondering about:
1. I hear talk of a power button on the keyboard. Where is it?
2. Is there a way to eject w/o the PM being on?
I think that's it for now. Other questions I'll post in the appropriate forums. Good to be back in the mac community. You guys are a fun bunch. Oh yea I need to try this 3 or 4 way isight thing later. Ever since I saw it done at one of the expos last year. I've been dying to try it out. Thanks again guys, now I go Christmas shopping.
