Well, I'm getting used to this Mac iBook. It's alright. A few small issues, but in general, I think I like it.
Getting the people at Macromedia to help me with Dreamweaver was not a
good experience. The lady, Sheena, was not easy to understand and not
all that reliable. Someone else in their first line of defense (before
you get to someone like Sheena) was not the smartest cookie out there.
Getting anywhere with them took four times as long as it should have.
If you can avoid calling Macromedia support, please do.
The resolution on this iBook sucks. It's way too low. C'mon, Apple...
let's make this ready for 1998 already. I'm hoping to find a hack or
see if support gets better in the next OS upgrade. It seems that 32MB
of memory could go one step higher. Years ago, I had a 16MB video card
that did higher resolutions just fine. It's probably a marketing ploy.
Besides those things, I'm eager to install developer tools and see what
I can compile and get running on this. There's lots of code out there
waiting.
Email migrated over pretty well. It took maybe a half dozen tries, but
Thunderbird imported everything from my PC profile including my
settings and junk mail preferences. Pretty impressive. If you want to
make good software, concentrate on making the things that normally give
people headaches easy.
Ok, that's it for now. I'll be on vacation next week. Ciao!
