First Post From My Mac
Well, it's been about two weeks since my MacBook Pro had arrived. First thing I did was buy a two-button mouse (partly because I hate using touchpads, and partly because I find being able to use context menus with one hand is essential), then installed Firefox.
Ok, jokes about me turning my Mac into a PC aside, I've been pretty impressed with my Mac experience. I haven't yet taken it out into public (despite the 1000 wifi-enabled coffeeshops within a block of my apartment), but I have been taking advantage of the laptop's mobility. Right now, I'm writing this blog entry while sitting on my loveseat in front of my desktop's new 22-inch LCD monitor watching my latest Daily Show download (from iTunes, incidentally).
ASIDE: yes, when I went to Fry's to buy an extra GB of RAM for the laptop, I picked up a new monitor. This is why I don't go to Fry's more than twice a year.
Stay tuned for a Windows user's analysis of the Mac experience. So far, thumbs up!
