I was a bit taken back by it's size but will quickly learn to adjust.

Airport reception is definately improved over the Ti, I;m topping about 200 right whereas on the DVI I'd get maybe 140-160.

Congrats on your new found joy.
And yes, the wireless reception is much better on the Al 17 than the Ti 15.

Very snappy, especially in finder actions. Strtup is a bit odd though, looooong pause at the black screen with an almost instant jump to the desktop.

I love that powerbook but I have to admit that tiny keyboard looks totally stupid on such a big laptop.

Beautiful! I thought the keyboard looked bigger in other pictures, but it looks pretty in those pictures. Can't wait to get my 15''! It will be a happy day

Thanks for the pics, and congratulations! Don't forget to watch a movie... and get SuperCal from versiontracker.com to enhance your LCD clarity.

I've noticed the same thing on my Al 15". In fact, of the 6 Macs I've owned that ran OS X, none of them started up the same... (and two were the same model and specs).... it's just the Mac uniqueness I guess!!

hard disk is also MUCH quieter than on the Ti, I almost never hear it, the machine seems dead quiet to me. Have not experienced any fan noise whatsoever.

How are the built in speakers? They seem pretty big.

Sooo Pretty!
Hope you enjoy it!
Scratch that, I "know" you'll enjoy it!
