Boy I bet Photoshop on a 9 inch screen is tight.:) This is a pretty common hack. I just use my MacBook Pro and iPhone. Does all that and more. 9" is tight my old 12" PowerBook is my back up computer. 12 inches is tight after you get use to the 17" MacBook Pro and 4 spaces. I think the next version of the MacBook will get you wanting it.;)

She uses her hacked mini nine when she travels to clients. She says she has not had any problems with software on the machine. What I'm planning to use mine for is traveling. Email, and some word processing with NEO office, and my web software to update my web pages. If it will do those things, I'll be very pleased. I'll keep you posted. BTW the UBUNTU OS is pretty neat.
