Well, I trashed the keyboard on my Apple laptop. Don't ask.

Anyway, I took the poor baby up to the Apple store and voila! While I
waited, they replaced the keyboard with a new one, no charge.

:)

There was no phone cue at the store, everyone there spoke English, and
some really good-looking geekbabes came in to buy ipods and ipod phones
while I was there.

Now, if only I could sell my year-old hotrod desktop windows machine...!

I've got to admit - I'm seriously thinking about Apple and getting a
MAC.

Not sure what kind yet though. I'm kinda leaning towards a laptop.


Ergonomically, the Macbook Pros are a little slicker than the Macbooks.
The price difference won't matter to you. I got the 15" screen model
because I actually do lug the thing around to various meetings. If I
were just using it at an office, I would get the 17" screen model. It
takes a bit of getting used to to switch back and forth between Macs and
Windoze machines, and some of the really basic things you can do with a
Windoze machine are really a pain in the ass on a Mac, but all-in-all, I
now prefer the Macs to Windoze machines. What few Windozes apps I
absolutely have to have on my Mac I run through an emulator, and they
work just fine. Most notable among these: Wordperfect for Windows.

If you have any usage questions, give me a call.
