Arrived
My new laptop arrived yesterday, but with the film last night I didn’t really get the chance to play with it until today. It’s all as expected, but I’m a two time Powerbook owner so that’s hardly a surprise. It’s all the little touches that make it such a nice piece of kit, from the magnetic power supply cord that pulls out so that nobody can trip over it and pull your expensive laptop off the table, to the keyboard and screen that change brightness depending on the ambient light.
When you first switch it on you get the option to transfer all your settings from an existing Mac, which is incredibly helpful. I was able to copy my entire user account from my iMac, and it really does copy everything. It meant that when I first got into the OS properly everything was identical to what I’ve been used to, all my settings, all my applications, even my desktop wallpaper and the position of the icons on my desktop was all there. Next job is to wipe the iMac and prepare to sell it, but first I need to work out what I’m doing to do with my 250GB of music.
