Everything about the Mac is sketchy. But it just works. Unless it doesn't. Then it's broken.

I agree with Loren, the slickness of the simple and small things make it really shine. Or rather it's the contrived and unimaginable way some of these things are handled in Windows that makes them mind-boggling.

All PowerBooks (including the 15") get piping hot when they're running plugged with their power connnector. Loren, can you also confirm this with yours?

Loren: You might want to send a note to Mike over at XLR8yourMac.com to see if he'll post your problem to his board. That will get other comments up over night and you'll likely do service to others if it hasn't already been mentioned.

Correction to my first post: I meant to write new TIGER OS (10.4), not Panther (10.3 which is already out).
