My new shiny MacBook

Well new to me!!  I bought a refurbised Macbook 13" (250GB HD, 4GB RAM) from http://www.notebooks2go.co.uk/ at a cost of £500.  My new Macbook arrived within 24 hours - nice and clean.

I tried to install the xCode developers kit from Apple IOS developers but hit a few problems with 'disk not mounting'.   Realised how rusty I was using a Mac - last one I used on a regular basis looked like..

I am ashamed to admit that I even had to look up how to get a screen shot (Utilities - Grab).   I did not realise how 'Microsofted' I had become until this point!

After a few more false starts - the SDK download worked (only 12 wait for each download - I live in the sticks!)
