Hi this is TrueX5er with AppleCare can I have your 12 digit Serial number and first name please?----I'm sorry, I'm going to have to transfer you to a specialist, please hold.

Hi this is SuperGreg, software specialist, can I have your serial number?

edit: I have an idea! lets make an "official Apple Computer thread" and merge this and the "MacBook" thread into it...then we have a one stop place for everything!

Okay, so I'm three weeks late to the game. I got sick of my pathetic Powerbook and am the proud new owner of a Blackbook. I got a factory install of leapord, and coming from 10.3, I am impressed. This thing is so fast, and every little gripe I had, from the iChat being really unusable with AIM, the Mail being old fashioned and lacking function to the lack of organization. I LOVE the stacks, and the new safari. I enjoy being able to connect to secure websites again .

Some little suprises, whether they be from the macbook or the Leapord:
-Battery life is worse on "extend battery life" function (goes from almost 5 hours on normal setting to 2)
-Photobooth (I'm a dork) the greenscreen thing- AMAZING.
-Bang for the buck. This thing is head and shoulders over my old system which cost $1000 more (and is still worth as much as the new mb)
-Widgets (I know, 10.4 but I'm double dipping on the upgrade)
-iCal integration. Much more fluid
-Reflective dock (cool)
-Ability to have 200 tabs open without the computer dying (good for surfing x5world, simeontaneiously with eBay looking for a new car, ipod and selling a bunch of stuff)
-This is all on one gig. I just bought a 4gb kit from crucial


So I'm impressed. Call me simple, but this rocks. I'm happy until the next MBP comes out. (Want to go to college with the latest gadget, who can blame me)

Well, the flesh colored walls of this hotel room certainly doesn't help.
I had the best luck on the airplane where everything is a different color, and it can get a good, stable image. Its also important not to move it... if you set it up and tilt your screen you will notice a weird picture. just play with it, you'll figure it out, and its nothing a trip to lowes can't solve

gotcha...so the brownish tan-ish walls of the room I'm in aren't such a great idea.
Lemme try the kitchen
