Mac fiascos

Peter Smith  |     |  Tags:  mac  |  Comments (0)
My tempestuous romance with my MacBook Pro continues, a heady mix of the joys of exploring a new windoze free world mixed with the pain of never reading the manuals and committing endless schoolboy errors.

I had the opportunity onsite to link my mbp to an external monitor during a meeting, and proudly brandished the mini-dvi to vga connector that had been sitting in the box when I unpacked the mbp. "Let's use the big screen" I cried. This nearly turned into actual tears when I took the time to look at the ports on my mbp and found it had a DVI port but not the mini one! The connector is for a macbook not a macbook pro!

fortunately the day was saved with a locally produced DVI to VGA connector.

I soon madeup with my mbp when I got a call from the office saying my 4gb memory upgrade had arrived. This was duly delivered today but the joy again turned to tears when I realised my mini screwdriver set is in my office desk, 24 miles away. Denied again!

Will this torment never end?
