I started a new gig today, and a very pleasant part of the day was spent setting up a spanking new MacBook.
(Yes, more on the new gig soon… not meaning to be cryptic, just trying to gather my thoughts semi-intelligently. And it’s late. And I want to watch the Champion’s League final from earlier today before I inadvertently hear the score.)
Anyway, the day after the product was released, I’m using a white version as my work machine. Seamless describes the experience, and I’m looking forward to applying my years of home Mac usage towards my day job, too. Outlook’s calendaring was the hook which made a Mac not worth the effort in the past, but Exchange isn’t the company standard for me anymore. Not missing it.
More to come in the future on bits and pieces of this computing experience. The web was all over this product, as you might expect. Here’s the CNET coverage:
- An early, pre-rating CNET review
- Photos of the introductory experience
- Photos of an arrest outside the San Francisco Apple store
- The story behind the arrest photos, from Scott Ard
