In all other respects OS X on the TiBook (which I'm writing on now) is near-infinitely better. It goes to sleep and wakes instantly. Last night I unhooked seven plugs (speaker, power, 2 USBs, firewire drive, ethernet, SVGA monitor), closed the thing up, took it up on the roof, opened it up, quickly figured out how to set it up (for the first time) for wireless, plugged in a USB mouse, and hacked away. Then I closed it, took it downstairs, opened it up, watched the Mark Twain thing, wrote on the blog and did some correspondence, closed it up, brought it back down to the office, plugged all seven cables back into their sockets, opened the lid, and it was all back up again. The OS fired up the external monitor, recognized the Firewire drive, and had no problems doing anything other than remembering the background picture for the external monitor.

Enclosures:
None.
