Greg,
Thanks for the comment. I'm looking forward to hearing when you have the service working in India. Until then, I'll use it to call friends and family in Europe.

JD,
There are plenty of IM clients that work with GTalk, AIM, YIM, MSN Messgenger, Skype, etc. If you're using some proprietary application, you might have a problem but otherwise, no problems here. Are for blog software, that would depend on your software provider. Most of the blogging applications I have seen use web based clients which are not a problem. I haven't yet come across any Firefox plugins that don't work on OS X. I've moved to Flock as my primary browser on OS X and Linux. I am using a logitech mouseman trackball, a usb hub, Microsoft Natural Keyboard 4000, and a few other random USB and firewire devices without any problem.

Please let me know what you decide to do and how it goes.

Jase,
On my ThinkPad, I had disabled the trackpad because I found it to be incredibly annoying. I turn on the mouse acceleration on all my computers because I like being able to move the mouse very quickly from one of the screen to another. The main reason I don't like the trackpad on the MacBook is purely because I have to take my hand off the keyboard when I'm typing and then move it back when I'm finished. The only saving grace on the MacBok trackpad is being able to use two fingers for scrolling and also using two fingers to open up the "right-click" context menu. I still maintain that THE KILLER LAPTOP would be ThinkPad T60 running OS X and dual (or triple) boot into other OSes such as Linux.

Q. I will try to install Fedora Core 5 and Suse 10.1 via Q and see how it goes. I will post my findings as soon as I get a chance to complete the installation.

I'll give Parallels a try after I'm done with Q so I can compare the two.

FYI, I am not able to get to your blog on .Mac

Thanks for taking the time to comment on my blog. I look forward to hearing all of the new content you have planned and I'm sure all your listeners feel the same way.

Good luck!
