I Love (Hate) Apple

I'm a huge fan of the Macintosh, the iPod and Apple's incredible design sensibilities and well-integrated products. I've probably owned at least a dozen macs in my life, starting in 1989 with a 512K Mac SE with a 20 meg hard drive. In general I appreciate Apple's products almost as much as Mark Morford at SF Gate, who somehow manages to fit the word vulva into his review of the MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo.

The day the new Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro was announced, I bought one. My old 17" Powerbook G4 had been on its last legs for months (dropping it in the airport security line that one time didn't help), and in an unusual act of gadget-lust self control, I had managed to wait until the long-rumored Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro was announced.

This is where my love story turns into a hate story.
