Re: Re> OT: new macbook rant

Yes Per, that was my intention. Also i think, that Apple's firewire  
port removal on the new standrad MAcbook is nothing less than a  
scandal. One, that stinks, actually. It seems, that Apple is trying to  
pull out of their own data transfer standard, while purposedly forcing  
professional customers into having to buy bigger models now. Well, i  
am not paranoid, but simply aware of the fact, taht almost everyone i  
know using macs for professinal (music) tasks has decided on buying an  
ordinay macbook in the last years: Because they are already way over- 
equipped for teh average music need.
in any case:  The new "Blackbook" works nicely now, but give me a few  
days to explore the eventualities.
I'll report back for sure, if it starts to suck (i am aware of  
potential problems with non-ppc macs, be it max/msp for instance..)

greets from berlin!
