My New 15.4″ MacBook Pro

Well, it’s official. I’m now a Mac user.

I got back this afternoon from the Apple store with my new MacBook Pro, and right now I’m getting ready to turn it on and start playing around with Mac OS X.

So what are my first impressions?

Kudos to Apple and their design department. They’ve designed an amazingly well thought out (and drop dead gorgeous I might add) notebook computer with the MacBook Pro. Hell, even the styrofoam packing is sweet.

Apple really pays attention to detail. There is absolutely nothing sloppy about this computer… this thing is like a piece of fine art.

One neat little detail that I really like is the MagSafe power adapter, a break-away magnetic power cord connection which can really save the day at coffee shops when you sometimes have to stretch to reach a power outlet. I’ve had people trip over my power cord on numerous occasions and it’s good to know that I no longer have to worry about damage to my notebook when that happens. Brilliant.

More to come.
