The MacBook Pro

I finally got my MacBook Pro yesterday—oh, the pain of seeing it sitting in a hub in Amsterdam for almost a week. But it’s here now. And it’s everything I was hoping for. I just love how fast the Quicksilver search is, and how fast the Cmd-T and Cmd-Shift-T menus in TextMate are. Not to speak of serving development web pages and running test suites. And the brightness of the screen, the built-in camera, and all the rest of it.

The only glitch I’ve experienced is that it will lock up for a second or two every once in a while, which is really annoying. I searched a little, and it seems I’m not alone—that’s an immense relief to know that it wasn’t something I broke while installing the RAM or what have you.

Now if only one could count on Apple to acknowledge and fix problems, but that’s probably asking too much.
