Only the 15" and 17" models come with backlit keyboards. So no, mine doesn't have the backlighting. Truth be told, within 20 minutes of usage I managed to freeze the computer! (I'm not kidding). I inserted the Mac OS X DVD (just to check it out) and had System Preferences open - I was trying to change my trackpad settings. It stopped responding but I was able to move the cursor around. I didn't know how to "ctrl-alt-del" so I rebooted it... I don't know what went wrong! :blush:

It is running fine now, I haven't been able to do much with it (no Internet, I won't have the Internet on it for a while, until I get broadband). Other than the slight hiccup, it's fantastic! I only have to go back onto the PC for the Internet (for the time being). :)

On Mac OS it's Ctrl-Apple+Escape I believe.

Just received my iPod Shuffle! When I signed for the box I noticed it was a very giant box... So I looked inside to find tons of paper and another very small box that held the Shuffle. My god this thing is small!!! Its about the size of a stick of gum, I already love it!

Sadly I don't have a 2.0 USB port so its taking alot longer to charge. Ill post some pictures if you guys want later.

WinXPro, It's usually much cleaner, however I must divise a way to hide the Cinema Power Adapter. Currently it's cluttering my desk space! :) Also, I should have taken out my Acme keyboard protector.

I have purchased a Dual 1.8 (All I could afford at the moment and was in need of a desktop.) I packed it with 1GB RAM and just an 80GB hard drive. I don't use a lot of memory, at least at the present time. I have a habit of keeping only things I need. That would be my music and my school documents. The school documents take up no space, practically. Oh yeah, the photo library is some size too, but no where near 80GB so at the present it is more than suffice. the 1GB RAM, I figured I could purchase third party, should I feel the need I must upgrade. However, toying around with the system, I am not feeling a need. Not as of yet, anyhow. :blush:

Thanks for the compliments.

    • Classic Outlook vs New Outlook — Which one do you prefer and why?

      By tsupersonic · Posted

      When you're in enterprise IT environment, you're kinda forced into it...otherwise I'm not touching any mail client for personal use.  I can't stand New Outlook. It's complete trash - half the features I need in (Classic) Outlook are just missing in New Outlook. I haven't talked to a single person who actually likes the new client. 
    • macOS ‘Golden Gate' unveiled with standalone Siri app, performance improvements and more

      By +mram · Posted

      I think it's cute that Apple is implementing their tools at precisely the same evolutionary level as other devices' tools. In other words, I see no innovation; it's "the same but different." "Hey Siri, help me write this document about shoes." Powered by Google. "Sure thing, while we're here, can I interest you on some Nike's? They're on sale at Target right now!"

    • Apple unveils Siri AI, a "reimagined" version of SIri

      But apple has ASSURED us that this is private. So, it's private. I expect the same "leeway" shown Microsoft to be reflected here.
    • ASUS ROG Falchion Ace 75 HE keyboard is 27% off on Amazon

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      ASUS ROG Falchion Ace 75 HE keyboard is 27% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The ASUS ROG Falchion Ace 75 HE is currently $159.99 on Amazon, down from $219.99. That's 27% off and $60 saved on a keyboard that combines retro and modern design, while being one of the most responsive and adaptable 75% boards available right now (purchase link down below). The ROG Falchion Ace comes with the HFX V2X magnetic switches that allow you to set actuation anywhere between 0.1mm and 3.5mm with 0.01mm fine-tuning steps. It also comes with Rapid Trigger, a feature that resets the key the moment you release it rather than waiting for a fixed reset point, which makes a noticeable difference in fast-paced games. And finally, an 8,000Hz polling rate should make the response time feel instant. The build quality is decent, with dense plastic and powder-coated aluminum, which is expected from a keyboard at this price point. There’s also the onboard adjustment wheel, which lets you tweak actuation and Rapid Trigger sensitivity without opening any software. For competitive gaming, the ROG Falchion Ace is hard to beat at this price. And those who appreciate old-school hardware, especially those white keyboards we’ve all grown up with, will likely also appreciate the looks of this keyboard. A carry case is included.
