    Consumer Reports just came out with their new issue where they rate computers and, for the umpteenth year in a row, CR rates Apple computers #1 in every category including reliability and tech support over all other computer manufacturers (except for the Mac mini). They also like the iPad which we should receive tomorrow afternoon (our first ever Apple computer product).

    If only people would listen ... instead of just looking at the (alleged) bottom line. (Let me know what you think of the iPad ... I'm thinking of getting one myself).

    The funny thing I always laugh when people said Leopard or Snow Leopard is more difficult than Windows, because I'm absolutely sure that they never use Mac in their life :D

    It's my son's but, for the three days he's had it, I don't see him doing anything else. It's an amazing device. He carried it everywhere and people constantly walk up to him and ask about it. All say they want one or are going to buy one. I think I might become one of them even though I initially thought I wouldn't care to have one.

    Apple just announced they sold 1 million iPads.

    Thanks for the info - I'm passing through the US in a couple of weeks and have been debating whether I would buy one. I think my decision has now been made.
