Even fewer reasons not to own a Mac

Damn you, Apple! Now must readjust budget again:

As one of many Mac fans that don’t actually own a Mac (though I did between 1984 and 1997), I’m stoked to see falling prices and new and exciting features. Like the ‘Sudden Motion Sensor’. If I had a Powerbook, I could walk and surf, commute and compute, without fear of losing any data were I to be as careless as to drop the Powerbook.

Surf stop: Fat Eye for the Skinny Guy
iTunes’ party shuffle is playing a copy of: I’ve Got You Under My Skin – Diana Krall – When I Look In Your Eyes, of which I have the original CD and therefore didn’t steal music.

    I like the fact that the new Powerbooks support 2-finger action.

    Ok, that came out wrong.

    Bah! IBM had that feature ages ago. And the Thinkpad can withstand a waist-high drop because I tried that before 🙂

    MB: yeah, trackpad scrolling gets my vote too
    bubblemunche: if i’m not wrong, the IBM thinkpads were designed by some famous designer when they first came out, unfortunately they never changed. Haha, actually i quite like the ultraslim series of IBM.
