I’m delighted to finally have my Apple MacBook after 3 weeks. I won’t waste time reviewing it as you all know that it is just plain fantastic. Just a quick summary:

  • It’s beautiful
  • Mac OS X is beautiful
  • It becomes warm (and sometimes very warm after some hours of intensive use)
  • It works beautifully with my Livebox

As expected, here are the Photo Booth manipulated photos captured with the built-in iSight camera of the MacBook.

Here, Christina and I are (re)discovering the pleasure of having our photo being taken by “someone” else…

Here, Kyan and Anya are in awe of CoreImage technology:

And this is the ultimate proof that Steve Jobs has won ; Christina is reading the MacBook’s manual:

Fantastic, I tell you!

I’m finally getting my Apple MacBook tomorrow. I’ve borrowed my brother’s old Roland PC-300 controller keyboard to have fun with Garageband. The latest Universal Binary driver for the PC-300 for Mac OS X is available on Roland’s website.

The manual in PDF format can be found elsewhere on Roland’s website.

I really don’t have any excuse for not composing a masterpiece tomorrow :-)

I am now using a simple Wordpress theme that I’ve devised myself by following this fantastic list of guides:

  • Dissection of a WordPress theme: Part 1
  • Dissection of a WordPress theme: Part 2
  • Dissection of a WordPress theme: Part 3
  • Dissection of a WordPress theme: Part 4

Thanks you once more, John Godley :-)
