wow factor

The switch to the new MacBook Pro highlights that you loose a little, with some familiar apps not easily replaced.
Two examples:

• The elegant, networkable and free Stickies notes.
• The feature rich and free MWSnap image capture.

The search for suitable replacements continues and the short term solutions are...

• BaseCamp
• The elegant yet limited Capture Me

Neither go near replacing the versatility and functionality of the Win originals. The search continues.

The upside is I love the MBP and am running Firefox 2 with all extensions working. Recommended Text editors are being trialled and I like Smultron.
