1. Macbook Airs *really* aren't all they're cracked up to be

I only realised today that they don't actually have a CD drive, so the only way you can open a CD or DVD is by connecting an external drive, which takes up all one of the USB ports. The ports themselves are in such a finicky position it's hard to access them anyway. The weight of it means that you could push it off it's desk while trying to connect something up to it. It only has one USB port, which means no external monitors or anything like that. No ethernet for fast copying over of stuff, and no "Y" connecters. (I don't know the actual name of these, only that old old iPods use them).

That said, the weight of it makes it lovely for people on the move, like Dad, and the charger cable is a great improvement.

2. Contrary to what you might think, there aren't a lot of places to stick apple stickers on drums

As is tradition, when someone in the family gets a laptop, two apple logo stickers are included, and I get them, and I put them on my drum kit, to create the iDrum. :P

Now, a drum kit being as big as it is, you'd think there'd be tens if not hundreds of places to affix the aforementioned stickers, but there aren't. You can't put them on the heads, because that's where you hit. You can't put them on the rims, because they're out of sight, and you can't put them on the cymbals, because you'd beat the living **** out of them before you stopped messing around and actually started playing properly.

This leaves only one place, the bass drum. So, I have 2 on the front, for product placement when I'm on stage, and two on the inside top, which is a place hard to describe, and would need a picture to show you. I'll take one tomorrow.
