We interupt this X installation... I'm playing on one of the two new iBooks we recently purchased for a couple department heads here at work. They're cute and seem pretty rugged. Right now I'm running in MacOS X, since it came pre-installed and I'm more MacOS X oriented these days. It feels pretty comparable speed wise to my upgraded Lombard, although with 128 MB it only has half as much RAM as I've got installed. I have a feeling that Apple is going to sell a ton of these. 11:28:00 AM     MacOS X There's a new site in town for MacOS X and Darwin users interested in getting X Windows running on their computers: XDarwin.org. There's not a whole lot of information there yet, but it sounds like it will be the definite source of information for running XFree86 under Darwin and MacOS X. In related news: Fink didn't come through for me getting the XFree86 packages installed. It quit over an hour into the install process with compile errors. Maybe I should wait until I can find some kind of binary install. 9:56:00 AM
