I have heard that carrying a bag (back pack (on one sholder) or single stap band) can mold your spine so that you walk crooked, especially if it is way too heavy. The twelve inch and the back pack (carried by both sholders) reduces the possiblity of this urban legend.
    I walk funny anyhow.. so np for me.

        Do you play WoW on the 12'' screen, or do you have an external display? If not, what's the gameplay like on that size a screen? How do you have the graphics set up as?

          Remember to let your kid on it every now and then, too.

                There's only one solution.

                One up him, and buy yourself a new laptop as well

                  I'm wondering if Asher got banned for that extremely mild troll.............

                  ACK!

                    I'm not banned.

                    Though I will say you have to be mentally challenged to spend the money Apple asked for to get a PowerBook today, considering it's about 4 year old technology.

                    Far worse on batteries and far worse in performance than a Pentium M/Celeron M system, but who's counting.

                    They've been copying IBM ThinkPads for features (that ThinkPads have had for years) to try to make up for the dearth of actual upgrades...

                        iBooks are even worse than PowerBooks. Even Aggie has said a few times you shouldn't get an iBook.

                        There are far better deals out there.

                          Yeah. I will by an external, but I haven't got around to it. I have the defaults. I haven't bothered tweaking it as it seems to work fine, and I'm only interested in mindless mayhem anyway.

                            If you have a digital camera there is fun to be had. Garageband is cool too. It's probably a good idea to do the two finger scrolling hack I mentioned earlier. I find that indispensable - much better than a scroll wheel.

                              Try the Spotlight search too. I think it's Apple-Space [I changed mine as I use Apple-Space to enable Classical Greek input]

I do thank all of you guys for your help again. next step before school starts is to let the kiddo get famaliar with it since he has never used a mac before this one
                                I'd forgotten about this. You can be pretty heavy with the parental controls in the new version of OS X. You can specify whether you must be notified if he wants to put someone on his chat list and what sites are banned and so on....

                                ....nae pr0n for the Tubes' kid.
