Well its been a few days now using the new MacBook, and this is the first Blog post using said MacBook. As I mentioned in the last post, the look and feel of OS X is unbelievably polished. The transitions between windows, screen savers and other views (like Front Row) are seamless and easy on the eyes. Even some of the in-OS animations like shrinking windows and bouncing icons are well done — translation: they’re understated and complimentary instead of in-your-face.

I look forward to exploring and experiencing new things in this strange new world that I’ve moved into. I would never have thought it would be so different… but it really is. This journey with me will undoubtedly bring me in contact with numerous members of the infamous Mac community. I have to say that among my macophile friends I was readily accepted and they seem to be enjoying the experience of one’s first Mac vicariously through me. Thanks guys! (you know who you are!!)
