Hello World!

Welcome to maclifehacks.com, as Chris said.

A little about me. I’ve been a Mac devotee since I first arrived at college and bought a Centris 610 for my dorm room and a Powerbook 145b for class. I envied the cool kids who had the Duo. Many years later, I’m now on a Macbook which I take everywhere, and a Mac Mini upon which I store all the TV shows I’ve downloaded from iTunes. Yes, I’m a little bit addicted. But I’m happy.

Chris (that’s him) is right, I’m a New Yorker. New York is a town with not one but TWO apple stores, and one of them is open 24 hours a day. Our Apple store has DJs on Saturday nights. Every subway is crammed full of people with the telltale white earphone cables, telling me that they, too, are part of the cult.

F12 is my favorite keystroke, followed closely by command- ` and command-tab. Since about six months ago, I’ve been quite fond of control-space and lately I’ve been fond of command-space, too. I like long walks on the beach and my fireplace screen saver. Contrary to what Chris wrote about us in the about page, I have spoken to women in bars about my Mac addiction. I’m not sure whether it says more about me or about women in New York that the conversations generally lasted more than 30 minutes, and by about the fifth minute, each woman was gushing about the cool thing she did with her playlist in iTunes or how she just discovered Automator. I’m betting that it’s neither me nor them, rather, it’s just the Mac.
