Tree of knowledge

After waiting some time, the new Apple micro-notebook MacBook AIR is finally out! Well, it's not really a micro-notebook, but it is damn thin (FYI - the guy in the Apple demo video has unreasonably large hands, which make the computer look smaller than it actually is). It's been a long year where I had to trawl through some pretty damn scary Apple rumor sites and blogs occupied mostly by mega-nerds and Mac extremists - e.g., check out the uber-geek at MacWorld who pretty much minuted Steve Jobs' presentation as if he were one of the Four Evangelists. Sad. Hey, I had an Apple II back in the day and played Decathlon on the old standalone Mac (when Microsoft was still making gaming software for Apple) but those Mac spiritualists you see congregating at Apple Stores across the world are just SAD. Now, if only I can manage to find $1799 in my pockets...

p.s. Laptop tip of the day: best laptop bag = bubble wrap envelop (also good deterrent for thieves).

Speaking of apples and other fruits, here is something even more addicting than Sushi Go Round (don't say I didn't warn you):

...Not if you have a tendency to drop and smash your laptop to bits. Most people with reasonable motor activity coordination do not need this (just like most people do not need personalized license plates).
