So, after a lot of adventures, Duke Fleed is here. I guess that the latin say "in nomen, omen", which basically means that every name hids a destiny, fits perfectly all the going.
But, I'm pretty happy with it! Apple is always obsessed by detail, and the MacBook Pro is definitely full of the Apple culture. And, no dead pixels to piss me off!
Tomorrow I will attend BarCamp in Turin. I will speak, with some friends, about the possible evolutions of the blogroll. Interesting, huh? Now that it comes to my mind, I could speak a bit about Vox!
Duke Fleed, my new MacBook Pro, is still in the making process.
At Apple say that it will be ready to ship on Monday the 20th. Nice!
But they expect I will receive it not before November the 29th.
Wow. Nine days is an awful lot of time for an express courier expedition!
I just can't wait.
So, I did it.
I was in need of a laptop computer to carry on my projects everywhere. So, I decided to use part of my relatives' generous gifts to buy it.
And today I've placed my order. It is a Macbook Pro 2,33 ghz with 160GB HD and international keyboard. I'm pretty used to italian keyboards, but I'm starting to think that, when it comes to write code and to use non-localized program (which I use a lot) the international one is a better choice. I wonder what will happen with accents, though.
So, my brand new mac is ordered. I hope not to have screen problems like dead pixels and so on. I'm pretty unlucky with dead pixels.
The little boy already has a name, and a customized HD icon. He will be named Duke Fleed, after the alien prince fallen on earth, from the Go Nagai anime series "Ufo Robot Grendizer".
