Shiny

I’m writing this on my wife’s 15″ powerbook. I hate it.

I love it - it’s all shiny and sleek. I hate it - it’s soo slow - I mean how can it really be that slow to run apps, even to scroll through web pages? I love it - the display looks awesome, colors, icons, everything so pretty. I hate it - it’s ridiculously overpriced for what it is. I love it - when it’s in suspend mode the light on the front pulses! I hate it - where’s my right mouse button? I love it - it’s unix… only gorgeous. I hate it - running Eclipse is unbearable. I love it - when you get your password wrong it shakes it’s head…like far out! I hate it - what does the green jelly bean mean again? I love it - how about that user-switching effect?

It goes on from there. Love hurts sometimes.
