On friday, after a lot of anticipation, my Macbook Pro finally arrived 
It was a reward for contributing to webkit(http://webkit.opendarwin.org/blog/?p=44).
It is the first Apple computer I own, using one or two for work is not the same:)
After playing around with it, it is clear that it is a very nice machine. A lot of
other laptops look clunky and big next to it, especially my old (windows) laptops. One
of the things I like most right now is the media centre and being able to use the remote,
that is obviously something really nice to demonstrate 
Unfortunately there seem some issues with the Macbooks, some small, some really bad. My
machine behaves fine so far. So once again, a big thank you to Apple! I am starting to
contribute back by fixing four (svg) bugs over the weekend, well isn't that what open
source is about? 
Cheers,
Rob.

One more use for the remote.
You probably saw this on slashdot few days ago:
Motion-activated alarm system for Macs, controlled by the remote.

Talking about fun and unusual uses.
