    Sounds exciting! I'm like that when I've got a new gizmo on the way from B&H or where ever.

    So... could you please take the new Powerbook apart and take a picture of that too? I want to see for myself what the difference is, as everyone keeps telling me to go Mac. mwink.gif

    Seriously, please report back when it arrives and tell us all about it.

    PowerBook, from the Apple store's refurb section. Photoshop and other apps not Universal yet and all that jazz, besides I don't really want to be in the 1.0 batch...

    yea well... my sons would say I'm long past being a cool kid... but what do they know anyway :): I've done my time in the alpha-test, beta-test and 1.0 trenches (said the former MCSE and Apple Support Coordinator)... this is time t' have fun.

    well, TullyMars is out of the box and happily gotten all his software updates. I'm still in the process of moving all my data off my Pavillion onto an external drive, and I'm headed to get some software this evening. There are a few things I need to 'play with' for a while to decide on - is mail.app good enough for me to ditch Thunderbird for example, and which text editing environment to use for my XHMTL, CSS, Python, PHP (and soon Ruby?) etc., but I'm on my way.
