Fun Fact about Air
If you put a cylinder around the Eiffel Tower just big enough to enclose it, the air inside the cylinder (from the surface to the "edge" of the atmosphere) will weigh more than the tower.

Apparently this loser

stole two security cameras from our garage. The irony is not lost on me.
Nevertheless, if you do happen to know anything about this guy, please contact either me or the Berkeley PD: 510-981-5900. Thanks!
So, if you use the index fingers on opposite hands, and put them far apart on the trackpad, you can hold one still and move the other and watch things scroll (sort of). Sometimes it helps to make initial contact with the trackpad simultaneously. If you move one up and the other down, they can cancel each other out.
I just tried plugging in my 22" ADC Cinema Display (via an Apple DVI-to-ADC adapter), and it did not cause a kernel panic as did the Princeton LCD19D monitor. Hopefully, the school projectors will work, too, or I'm screwed.
In my head, Jason is suggesting not buying one of the new machines because he read about my problems, so maybe this is still bitter and annoyed:

However, I don't think that Apple should've released these new PowerBooks without more testing. I don't think I've done anything particularly esoteric so far, yet my experience has been less than stellar.
Don't get me wrong, when the new MacBook Pro works, it works very well. But for the amount of money I've spent, and the sacrifices I've been willing to make (e.g, not being able to run "mixed-mode" apps, like in the 68k-to-PowerPC transition days), I feel like things should work better.
