Hey guys

Just bought a new Macbook 13.3 Black. Very very happy with the purchase. Being a novice user into the macworld I wanted to start with something affordable and dependable - and my macbook is very much just that.

While I will be throwing many questions your way in an attempt to better acquaint myself with my new purchase - one question that I've been wanting to ask is : is there is a small macbook-for made light clip so that I can work on my macbook at night - usually when the missus is sleeping. My thinkpad spoilt me by placing a small light on top of the screen and I'm looking to spend some money to get an equivalent setup.

Any help?

Frys has a couple of choices; we bought a 'Compaq' branded gooseneck USB lamp, but Kensington also make one.

Cost........about $20.
Check Circuit City, if no Frys nearby or Outpost.com (which is Frys online)

Our Dream Machine is a Black MacBook 14.1" with backlit keyboard. Apple should make 12", 14.1 and 17" screen sizes. As long as we're dreaming, FireWire 800 and 4gb RAM addressable, C2D, and an LCD screen that extends backward flat without conflicting the table it's set on scratching the rear top of the case. Like a house design where the floorplan overlooked leaving through the bathroom door without hitting the toilet when exiting.

If Sony can do it.....then why not Apple?
