It was a total spur-of-the-moment thing. So far, so good =)

now if only there were some thunderbolt peripherals...

[theoctothorpe.livejournal.com]

They're coming. I spied a lot of them during NAB. The reason it's taking longer than I thought it would to come to market is Intel. They only recently made their reference kits available about a month or so ago.

It was total spur of the moment. I'm working on Localtype.org, and I am finding it difficult to play the Code/test/publish cycle on the iPad

A MBP or something else? Oh, and what's yer take on where the dock should be?

[theoctothorpe.livejournal.com]

MBP, like it says on the tin… er box =)

And the Dock goes on the right, like in the old NeXT days (pinned to the top).

Oh, it's sorta obvious I guess :) I keep my dock on the right as well. On the bottom it takes up too much screen real estate. Have you settled on wallpaper yet? I was using the standard "leaves" but changed it the other day to "grass." 13, 15, or 17?

Oops. You did say 13 :)

[theoctothorpe.livejournal.com]

13", as I wanted to stay under 5lbs.

As for my desktop, I use the same thing I've used since 2004 on all my machines. I use the now moribund blog "Airbag" desktop pic:

I like it because it's fairly neutral, so I can do colour correction without worrying too much about metamerism.
