Dude. Get in your truck. Head to Range Line. North of 7th, on Turkey Creek.

Best Buy.

Go in.

Go to the Mac store within a store.

Go to any of the Macs on display.

Type Alt + "o".

No four digit numbers. No start menu. None of that. Just alt and the corresponding letter.

0248. I mean, seriously?!?!

If you'd like, I'll meet you there and demonstrate. Lots-o-fun. You'll be amazed.

Oh . . . I like that.

If there's a typeface/character set that exists you have it on a mac

Want Arabic? Got it.



How about Armenian? Got it.



Need Cyrillic? No problem.



How about Braille? (commence jokes) Got that too.



You looking for Canadian Aboriginal Symbols? Seriously . . . could I make this up? It's on the Mac.



And about eleventy-kabillion others.

You can call up any language for the keyboard, call up everything all at once in character sets, etc.

Why would you need all that? Beats me, but it's there.

How cool is that?

Does an automatically rotating screen cancel out typing upside-down? That's the real question! Did you consider that?

Somewhere, minds have just been blown.

Or not.

¡ǝlqıssod s,ʇı 'ʞool 'ɥo

Actually, the real question is why is someone playing Avril Lavigne over the stereo? What the hell is up with that? I mean there's crap pop, and then there's this stuff, which is beyond crap.

My sister's kids are here. They've no musical taste.

Excuse me, I have to go shut that stuff off and give a lecture on good music.
