I picked up one of these last weekend…
It totally rocks! But then again I paid $200 extra for the black one so what else would you expect me to say - I’m such a Mac dork!

That’s one of the first things I loaded. I chased the dog around the house swinging my laptop making light saber battle noises come out of it. : )
Posted by: todd on May 27, 2006 11:50 PMHey, I got mine on Friday! :-) Except for the Airport turning into a hussy (seems to want to associate with every AP but mine, and randomly at that) I love it. It is so much faster than my 12” 867MHz PB, I can’t even put it into words. Even Google Earth flies, and it’s not a universal binary. Unfortunately, 120GB just isn’t enough…

I heard people were having problems with excessive heat from the new ‘books. I’ve got a HP ZV6000 with an AMD Athlon chip and I can’t imagine anything running hotter than this fat monster. Have you noticed your new computer heating up?

Not like some of the old Powerbooks which required asbestos pants!
