So far, the one thing that has been bugging the hell out of me with OS X is the mouse control panel. On Windows I used to just switch the acceleration off altogether, as I’m firmly in the camp that believes the mouse pointer should follow the mouse 1:1. In fact, I even had a registry hack that disabled mouse acceleration completely, even when the ‘Enhance pointer precision’ option was checked. While we’re on that subject, who decided on the name of that option anyway?!?

Just a few notes in this one today. I’m still enjoying the Mac OS experience, but I have a few gripes to make. Mainly things that I’d like to see added, features I’ve got used to on other systems.

I’ve been using my Powerbook for about 3 weeks now, and I’m enjoying it immensely. The OS is slick and quite intuative, although coming from Windows I’ve had quite a lot to get used to! The overall experience has so far been very positive.

Well, I’m sitting here with my shiny new PowerBook on my lap, typing this entry. So far the experience has been good. The machine itself is a great example of minimalist design, and consequently it’s sleek and very functional.

I’ve made a few minor changes to the logo, mainly just to clean it up and make it a little more unique. I’ve also got a nice blue and green version for a white background, which may get incorporated into a future design.

In 3-4 days Apple Computer Inc should deliver a 12” Powerbook to my door. Yep, I’ve placed my order and I’m switching! Yay!

Update: Well… it would appear that the bag I ordered with my Powerbook will take 5 days to ship, thus delaying the order. So it won’t be here as quick as I thought it would be. :(
