[QUOTE="Hemmingway, post: 1268078, member: 208371"] Thanks a bunch for the warm welcome everybody! :) Thank you also to Zizuno for a heads up with Right Zoom. I already had plans to grab up Lion as soon as I could and with iOS 5 and iCloud coming too I am really stoked about a quick push of my iPhone data directly into my MBP. Talk about seriously worth it updates. I may just find that Mac Zen and grow out of needing my whole display area filled up, even with wasted dead space. As I admitted, I have an M$ infected mind which also includes Flash. The proliferation of it is so extensive that not being able to use it causes exclusions from a good amount of online content. Anybody who owns a MBP and wants to avoid long complicated technical reads, set your battery to show time or percentage and hop onto your Facebook to play some of the Flash games. You almost think you are back on your broken down tired PC. Close that webpage and that quick drain stops and you have battery life again. I have spent already an easy 6 hours just using Scrivener and not even worry about battery life. I know Flash is bad...but it's everywhere. I thought I had read at one time a workaround for the failures of Flash, but really I just need to break the addiction. But the touchpad, unless I decide to play some MMORPG, has me completely broke from the traditional style mouse. I can do so much more and faster that when I do use a mouse, I feel crippled. Until we get virtual human interface devices that can be used in the air, this touchpad and the Mac keyboard are the keepers and way to that future. In my humble opinion. :Cool: The things outright different from a M$ infection are at best, trivial. Usually just a bad habit anyway. In just my short time I have done everything I had on a PC from bridging my NIC to my airport to the simple file name change to word processing. I can't say it enough, I love my Mac. Thanks again everybody, I look forward to lurking and picking your minds of every last little Mac secret. **UPDATE** Just started downloading my ->FREE<- Lion upgrade from the App Store. It's great that Apple is not going to penalize new buyers just before the release of Lion! Seriously, I love my Mac!! [/QUOTE]
