It’s Here!
Hehe, my new PowerBook is here and it’s working! I’ve been fooling around with it for the last two hours, and I’m amazed with it!
I’m trying to get into the philosophy of MacOS, i.e. forget that I should think about what my computer might want me to do (Windows), but what *I* want my computer to do for me! In the meantime, I’m downloading a series of apps and utilities, reading the manuals and trying not to break anything
More on the results tomorrow!

Looks like I’m not the only one who thinks most error messages are “I’m afraid I can’t let you do that, Jim” rephrased through the use of technical terms. Although I’ve always had the feeling it’s not so much things it wants me to do, but things it doesn’t want me doing.

A couple of pointers in there will be useful: XCode, X11, and Expose (configured on one of the corners, and if you have a clickable mousewheel, there as well–a must have!)
