Heard something about the MacBook Wheel. An apple laptop without keyboard... Google is our friend.

That was by far the most disappointing Macworld that I have ever seen. I feel sorry for Aayush who went all the way to California to see this.

Even Phil Schiller can't do anything about it here. ilife'09 took the life out of the show

Hmmm..
Followed a Macworld for the first time. And this is supposed to be the most disappointing ever? Damn! Took my whole week.

PS: Phew! Now I can peacefully buy the white macbook I was looking for. Thought it would be dropped. (Note the tone change.. I'm buying a Mac, did I tell that before? Oh this is fun.. YAHOO!!.. tutudutu tada. YEPPIE!!.. )

Hrrrumph..? Where am I?

Yes, pretty much. You, ofcourse, have to get used to doing things the Mac-way (which includes unlearning bad-windowsy habits ). Although I am still quite new to Mac and Leopard, I have picked it up very well and have gotten used to it so much that sometimes I literally press the Mac shortcut keys on my office PC (XP) and then LOL about it
