So it's been pointed out that my livejournal interblog is about 75% Mac geekery. This is probably pretty accurate. Sorry ataxi :-)

So to keep in that vein, let me say w00t, re my MacBook Pro now having a 250GB HDD. Didn't take too long to install, and all went smoothly. I appreciate the changes they made from the Powerbook series for taking the things apart. No nasty clips requiring a dentral probe, no locking FFC connections to break, easy to change SATA plug instead of IDE. It'd be a perfect machine, were it not for the RPC-2 crapped DVD drive. I met a Zebra at WWDC who suggested this might not last long, so I have hope in that.

Let's see.. non mac geeky.. hmm.. I'm over my jetlag (w00t!).. Edit: oops : I decomissioned an OS9 Mail server running on a 1995 vintage PowerMac 7500 (with frenchiephish's help).. I've put an order for our network upgrade kit (mm $40k), and due to the high potential of a staff member coming back, in whom's position my boss is currently in, I'm about to become my boss's boss.

Region coding on the MacBook Pro DVD drives is easily solved by buying one MacBook Pro for each region code you need to use.

I have one in region 1 and one in region 4. Easy :-)

My current one is a Core Duo.. I have been meaning to get a core 2 duo at some point.. :-)
