I recently got my new Powerbook about a month or so ago, and have been loving it. Well my girlfriend has also been loving it, and she finally bought one tonight.

You'll probably see her on the board as "Sita" or some variation of that.

The community is growing.

Sweet! so glad to hear!

to help keep things smooth if you're not using Mac Janitor here:
repair permissions. After every software update, and about every 2 weeks: close all apps and log totally off. Log on, go in Finder, Applications. Utilities, Disk Utility. After the message -getting disk information- select volume (below the hard drive name -upper left corner). Just highlight it. Now look to the lower two things are there near the middle, verify permissions, repair permissions. Click repair permissions. Also make sure you run cron tasks Finder, Applications. Utilities Terminal type (switching to root - superuser) sudo sh /etc/daily > this needs to be done /weekly (instead of daily) and monthly. again with all apps closed. Welcome to Mac and the forums!

Yep, she's really happy with it. I keep hearing from her "Oh that's neat!" as she discovers new things about it. I did install MacJanitor on her Powerbook for her, and showed her how to use it.
