I'm Officially a Dork.

Well, the verdict may or may not have been out on that in many of your opinions. But well, it's at least official with me. Why? Because, I am excited over my new keyboard.

It's true.

Now, I'm as much a Mac fanboy as the next guy. Heck, I went and bought the new operating system the day it came out. I watch Steve Jobs' keynote address at the MacWorld convention in San Francisco. But a new keyboard?

At least I haven't stooped to wearing the Apple t-shirt I got the day I bought the new OS. Not yet, anyways. I think I need to wait until I'm married to do that, or else there may be no hope for me.

I just never liked the one that came with my first Mac a couple of years ago. It was the standard Apple keyboard at the time, but it just always felt klunky to me and uncomfortable. It was white and pretty though. I had to keep it. It matched.

Anyways, now Apple has a new re-designed keyboard out. It feels and types just like my MacBook, which I love. I am typing so much faster now and with fewer errors. My fingers just glide across the board. And it has USB 2.0 ports on it. Nice!!

So over lunch on Friday I went over to the Apple Store at South Coast Plaza in Costa Mesa, Calif. to take one for a test drive. It was wonderful. I bought one.

And who are all these people hanging out at the mall on a Friday afternoon? It wasn't just moms and kids either, it was your normal mall crowd. What do these people do for a living? They couldn't possibly all be on their lunch breaks. The Apple Store was as busy as any weekend. I had to wade through a sea of wide-eyed adult-kids wondering why they've waited so long to make the switch to a Mac. Anyways, this is getting away from the point of the blog.

My new keyboard rocks. I love to type.
