Last night after work I picked up a <A HREF=\"http:\/\/www.apple.com\/powerbook\">Powerbook G4<\/A>.  So far, I&#8217;m in love.  <B>This<\/B> is what I&#8217;ve been looking for in a laptop all these years.  First off, the hardware.  It&#8217;s titanium, which is just too cool.  The laptop has a very clean, sleek look to it.  The keyboard is fairly comfortable, I do like the feel of the keyboard.  I&#8217;m still getting used to the single mouse button, but I think I&#8217;ll be able to cope.<\/p>\n<p>Now, as far as OS X goes.  This is the other thing I&#8217;ve been looking for all these years.  Something that gives me unix running on a laptop with a really slick interface.  And that&#8217;s what I&#8217;ve got here.  I&#8217;ve always liked the feel of MacOS (though I really haven&#8217;t used it since college), but I&#8217;ve always felt constrained by the lack of a kind of command-line interface.  And now it doesn&#8217;t only have one, it has one that is unix!  So far I&#8217;ve built the apps I usually use with no problem.<\/p>\n<p>The other bonus thing I realized is that this can now become my new development platform. I can have apache+php with mysql running on this box so that I can work offline on any web projects I have.  The one thing I don&#8217;t have yet is the wireless card for the Powerbook, but I&#8217;m hoping I can find it pretty soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So I finally took the plunge.
