This Mac thing is just a phase. Between the dominance of Windows and the energy of the open source desktops, it's hard to believe it's still around. Nice hardware though - assuming it lasts.
Best Shortcuts[edit]
Amusingly, the Mac has some of the most complicated and inconsistent keyboard shortcuts ever invented.
Type a directory location[edit]
- in the finder, and saving files using the default open/save dialog
Cmd-Shift G
Copy screenshot to clipboard[edit]
Cmd-control-shift-4 - press space if you want to switch to the "window" camera, then use the mouse to select your capture area.
Peeves[edit]
Too many to list. Let's just say "overrated" is probably going to be the summary after a couple of weeks of dedicated use.
- An article on UI that pointed out how valuable edges are - so much easier to "select" than any screen area (since when you overshoot you've still got it) - really turned me onto the sensibilites of a good UI design. So why, then, are the shortcuts for ejecting a CD and opening the insipid Front Row located in these key positions?
- Cursor keys - different combinations in every app. Why?
Looking forward to[edit]

- Decent power management/external screen support for Linoox
