Sorry, can't find Bills post (must be on my laptop
upstairs)...
For Xmas, all I want is a Ti Powerbook. I have been
totally seduced. I just need to go to CompUSA and try
a DVD in it to judge the screen.
They now come w/CD-RW/DVD drive *standard*...
Ohh, that screen - that CPU (550 MHz G4!) - that OS...
Anyone know a good "I've ignored Mac's too long and I
want to learn about OS X, but I am not a *dummy*" type
books for OS X?
They would make great stocking stuffers...
