Unboxing Vate
![[mail]](img/envelope.gif){kind=small}
| Categories: Computers and Internet Here are the promised pictures of unboxing the MacBookPro, now named Vate. The pictures aren't great - I must have been shaking with excitement.
Apple basically gives you a nice, cardboard laptop case, complete with handle.
And Apple has an amazingly decorative way wtih styrofoam.
Everything is nice, neat and tight in the box.
And this is what you get, plus the Parallels box.
And, of course, the first thing it wanted to do after registering and logging in, is updating, which, as said earlier, took a very long time.
I've heard that people are seeing the magplug falling apart. I guess that I'll see as time goes on. It is an amazingly powerful magnet though; I have a heck of time unplugging it from the laptop, and Clarise can't get it out at all.
I'm just piddling about and learning about MacOSX. On Monday we'll set up Parallels with WindowsXPsp2 and at least SLED. And I'll be adding the missing sync as well, so that my Lifedrive and Vate will get along most wondrously.
