Still no trace, no hope for an announcement the next days/weeks? Should we really wait for the next Intel Chip Arrandale, or simply get the current CPU. I am in search every day, for some news. But only stumble across rumors.

Macless life

After 5 years spent with my PowerBook(ug13), which was an admirably well conceived and 1 year with a MacMini(Luke); as Luke was meant to become a multimedia center, he is now coupled with a nice FullHD TV. I am back using Linux Debian for my daily work and no computer for my private stuff.
Before switching to Mac I was living a happily windowless live( the 5 years before my switch to mac) with Linux. The last distribution I used for at least 2 years was gentoo.

As for me? I switched to the Mac. No more grep, no more piping, no more
SED scripts. Just a simple, elegant life: “Your application has unexpect-
edly quit due to error number –1. OK?” by Donald A. Norman forword in the UnixHaters Handbook
The Past
To explain why the Mac changed my experience with personal computer; I have to begin my story in the 80s. In the past lies the answers to my present enjoyment with Macs. I ran through DOS 5.2, Windows 3.1, Windows95, RedHat Linux, Suse Linux, Windows2000, Storm Linux, BeOS, WindowsXP and finally Mac OS X.
