Getting a MacBook!

[Snacks McGee]

Got the same think, only in black - love it! picked up a bluetooth laser mouse while i was at it


Word...I have the black one as well and I love it.

I know, but it's still not as nice as a second button. Again, it's like Apple is going out of their way to NOT put a second button on there, and for no good reason.

i just bought a mouse, set up right button as "right click" - works for me..!

But unless its and offical "Apple" sanctioned mouse made of clear clear plastic, it ruins the whole "cool" aesthetic. You don't want to be "uncool" do you?

It doesn't get any cooler than this:

Nope, looks like this:

Actually, it does get cooler than that

Darn you Kelvin and your coolness factor!

I've actually heard that the new Mighty Mouse is something to stay away from... Apparently the little scroll ball on top goes all wonky after a short period of time, which sucks because the mouse is actaully pretty pricey.

Sometimes different isn't better I guess.

Screw QEMU, Parallels is where it's at now. The new version has a feature called 'coherence', which runs Windows programs seamlessly like it's a Mac program....it's own window & icon in the dock.

thats pretty cool, wished my vmware server did that

Well I'm a Mac guy and a PC guy and actually just ordered another Mac on the weekend. Macs use to be the killer platform for graphics but windows has advanced so much they are both excellent platforms and its just a matter of what software you need to run as to which will be most beneficial. Since I already the complete Adobe Collection it just makes sense to have another Mac but I do need a PC for windows development. I prefer OSX for the most part but hats off to both platforms as they grow up.

Oh yeah ordered a 2.0Ghz, 2GB RAM, 160HD Macbook, should be here Thursday. Oh yeah my prior comment regarding OSX Leopard coming out next month was only a rumor not exactly sure when its to arrive.

One thing for sure is no Mac can beat a PC in gaming. The day is coming for a hybrid system, its already begun with the Apple/Intel relationship so hold on to your seats.
