Loved MLB At Bat
On the iPhone I swear by Tweetie 2, MLB At Bat, Ego, The Weather Channel (a New England requirement), Ramp Champ, and recently the WordPress app for the iPhone (mostly for quickly moderating comments).

Liked MacBook Pro
I'm currently using a 15" MacBook Pro, the 2.8GHZ version with 4GB of RAM. It has a glossy screen, even though 75% of people will tell you that's wrong. I don't work outside that often, so I've been pleasantly pleased with it.

Loved 12" Powerbook
I use it as my primary machine, and have been using Mac laptops that way for probably the last 5 years or so, starting with the fabled and wonderful aluminum 12" Powerbook.

Uses xScope
The apps I rely on every day are: Coda for all my coding and development needs, Photoshop CS3 (I haven't upgraded yet), Tweetie (both on the Mac and iPhone), xScope for primarily checking "eyeballed" grids in web layouts,

Recommends Waterfield Cargo
I've had a Waterfield Cargo bag for years that continues to look brand new. Can't recommend them enough, and have been hooked ever since Doug Bowman mentioned them back in 2003.

Disliked Lacie Porsche
For backups, I have a modest 200GB Lacie Porsche drive. I had two of these and one bit the dust after just a few months. I don't recommend them.

Liked Magic Mouse
Just yesterday, I got a Magic Mouse and after 8 hours with it, I give it a thumbs up, despite being loud (when not using a mouse pad).

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter, especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked article and a belief on korrents.com are left in their original language.
