blackBook - impressions after 20 minutes use



My baby arrived yesterday. I made the mistake of using the Setup
Assistant to transfer my user account from the Big Mac, which took
ages, and for nothing, as I realised that I don't actually want that
stuff on the laptop. As a result I only had a very limited time to
play.

Impression 1: Wow. No problem with Aperture or Photoshop CS3
Impression 2: Screen is nice, but very different aspect ration from
the iMac or my old iBook - will take some rearranging
Impression 3: I'm not so used to the trackpad, so a mouse would be
nice. USB ports are all at the left hand side, which is a nuisance.
Could use my BT Mighty Mouse, I suppose, but that would mean endless
unpairing and pairing, if I want toshare it, no? There is no black
version of the Mighty Mouse, so I can't buy another one (fashion
victim :-) Is there another suitable black wireless mouse?
Impression 4: Can't wait to get back home and play some more, and dump
this stupid Dell I use at work !!
