Harry I look for the MacBook line to change in the near future. With only one current model in the MacBook line there will be a change coming soon. By the fall a suspect. I know that there are drums beating for a Steve Jobs keynote for the in model in the next couple of months. Hackintosh's are fun they are just full on things that do not fully work due to drives that reminds one of a cross between a windows pc and a Mac that I really don't have the time to play in that can of frustration.

I saw a young woman there with a netbook size computer but the logo on the cover was a white apple logo. I couldn't believe my eyes. "Has Apple come out with a netbook size computer and not told anyone?" I asked myself. Never the shrinking violet I went over to said young lady and asked her about her computer. It was, in fact, a Dell Mini 9, that she had hacked. It seems you can go through a series of machinations and install Leopard on this machine, and she had ( Lots of info on the net about this). Then she applied an apple logo decal over the Dell Logo. Well, "Harry" I says to myself, "You've got to get you one of those toys." I went on Craig's list and today and purchased a Dell Mini 9 with their version of unix/Linux i (Ubuntu) installed. What a neat little computer. My wife and I are traveling a bit and I intend to take this computer on my travels. It is way cool. More later.
