So the MacBook Pro is going very well, except Apple somehow sent me a Spanish version of the machine, so we're currently doing the RMA dance.

I've found a bunch of sites that offer Universal Binary versions of apps, including a ton of utilities, I'll post those as I find out the ones that help me replace Winbloze/Linux for my home machine usage.

Novell's released a new set of technologies that make for a very interesting desktop, the press release: NOVELL Raises the Bar for the Linux Desktop also has some cool video's showing the technologies in action

Ars Technica just posted a review of the Macbook Pro, and while it's not the heaviest metal of reviews, it gives some good feedback, read the article here and then check out the comments on the Slashdot - MacBook Pro Reviewed page.


My fave quote is: "I just got back from the Apple Compatibility Labs in Cupertino, and I was able to put my code on a MacBook Pro to do some build comparisons. On my current PowerBook G4, with a 7200 RPM drive, 1 GB RAM and a 1.67 G4, it takes about 20-25 minutes to do a full Release rebuild of my code (Universal Binary). It took around 5 on the MacBook Pro. Thank God my boss was with me to help test because that's the easiest convincing that I need a new laptop I ever done.

Bottom line : if you're a developer and you have long compile times on your code (AND you have the need/desire to be mobile), you NEED one of these machines."
