Poorly MacBook
12 December 2007 06:39
Well, NetLogic in Stevenage sorted out
my MacBook with its poorly hard drive and that meant that I had to
reinstall Leopard from scratch. But that works beautifully and it
has made me sort out all the useless extraneous rubbish that I had
on the hard drive. I could really do with replacing it with a
larger one ...

Wireless Keyboard
07 October 2007 12:46
I bought myself a wireless keyboard on
Thursday. I decided to go to the Apple shop on Regent Street,
purely because I was in London with an hour to spare, and it was in
stock. It's a darling little gadget and it works immediately,
although you do have to download the Keyboard Preferences update
(which happens automatically with Software Update, don't know how).
It just works eh ...
It is the same size and feel as my MacBook keyboard, but without the numeric keypad alternative layout. The power indicator is a tiny green LED on the right, just inboard of the power button, and there is a Caps Lock LED in the normal place. Apart from those lights it looks inert, but it comes alive with a touch on any key. It fits nicely in my Crumpler 'pooter bag, although I shall keep it in my Apple carrier bag (very nice) to save its being scratched too soon.
I now use this keyboard on the train or otherwise out and about. I shall continue to use the wired keyboards at home with my Griffin iCurve levitation device.
