My new Macbook thanks me

This week I’m in Ohio to learn about my new job at LibLime. First on the agenda – learn how to use a Mac … yikes!

So far, I’m pretty impressed, I keep hitting the wrong buttons and can’t figure out where the home and end buttons are (do they even exist?), but I’m having fun learning.

I also got to meet some fellow colleagues and chat with them and learn more about my job. I can’t wait to jump in and start working. For now you can listen to my interview with Richard Wallis on Talking with Talis – but keep an eye out for me to start my actual work after this week of training.

You can also see my pictures from today and yesterday.

    Nicole,

    Unless they’ve changed the keyboard layout on MacBooks since I got mine, home is the key combo fn+left arrow (the fn key is on the lower left corner of the keyboard) and end is the key combo fn+right arrow. However, I’ve discovered that home and end don’t always seem to work the same way they do under Windows. And yes, the different key combinations will definitely take some getting used to.

    Good luck with the new gig (and the new Mac)!
