First blog entry on the new toy: a shiny new iMac DVD SE. Current list of things to do:

• Learn to use this OS X thing properly. What’s the point in having access to a BSD command prompt if you can’t work from it?
• Get the second monitor running. The damn thing has an extra VGA port exactly so I can do it. So why isn’t it working? Why do I suspect the answer lies within OS X?
• Get the CD-Rom burner working, so I can burn the few bits of gear I have thus far downloaded to CD, so that I can fuck about formatting and re-formatting the machine.
