27"s of sheer joy

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

what thing? a widget?

if you don't want one, either hold down your ALT key and wave your cursor over it - see that X? click it ;) otherwise you can click the big + sign in the bottom-left and add/remove all your widgets...

When that halcyon day arrives that I finally sort out my personal finances I have long promised myself that I will defect from the world of PC to Mac.

Dear Lord, won't you buy me a MacBook Pro?

The OS is just brilliant but the speed and quality of image has me knocked sideways.
If there is anyone out there thinking of getting a new 'pooter, go Mac and go iMac. Being honest, the 21.5" woulda done me and you'll be overwhelmed by it too but I had some money (at last) and decided to push the boat out.
This is a love affair that started in 1985 (when I got into The Sisters) so I'm not some fly by night.

Get an iMac or a MacBook Pro, you will thank me.
James,

Assume that I am in the market for a new computer. Convince me to get this one.
