Krish-mas Comes Early

A few things came in the mail today…

Macbook Pro and iPod Touch

iPod Touch 16GB and 16GB Corsair USB drive

I’ve opened the iPod Touch and played with it. What a marvelous gadget! I can see this forever changing my computing habits. The Corsair 16GB USB drive was a replacement unit swapped out by Newegg – the first unit I had was defective out of the box.

I still haven’t opened the MBP yet. Hoping to do that this afternoon. More to write soon.

Bong!

I finally had a chance to set up my new Macbook Pro yesterday afternoon. I’m still installing apps, but my first impressions are positive. The screen is uniformly bright, the keyboard feels firm and solid. I’m very happy with my decision to purchase this unit instead of the new MBP (glossy screen) model.

I winded up paying $1000 less than what this machine cost when it came out. Below are some snaps from the obligatory unboxing.
