I'm a New Apple Convert

I just got a new Apple Macbook Pro 15" Core 2 Duo this week to replace my old Sharp M4000 laptop (great Windows laptop btw). After just a few hours I can say that Macs ROCK!.

Some must download software for Mac users:

Adium - chatting
VLC - viewing media
Textmate - coding
Camino - browsing
iTerm - SSH
CocoaMySQL - GUI to mysql
Parallels Desktop - VM of Windows so I can test on IE
Toast 8 - creating and mounting ISO or data CDs
CoreDuo Fan Hack - bump you fan up to 3000 rpm to make your notebook cooler

Then of course the normal production software:
Office 2004 and Adobe CS2.

For web presentations I had to switch from GoToMeeting to GatheringPlace which supports Macs. GatheringPlace is also a cheaper :)

Upcoming Event: Community Next

I've been to many industry events and spoken at a few as well. I'm sure we agree that there are very few quality events that are really worth your time and money. You spend 8 hours at an event and probably only 30 min is really worthwhile information to your business.

I've been to two of Noah Kagan's Entrepreneur27.org events (I have to fly from SEA to SJC) and can say that they are very good and really hit on the key topics you want to know about. The quality of the people is good as well and you'll come away with real contacts.

Here's the link below and also take a look at the agenda:
