The major thing that impressed me with it was that it was so incredibly easy to network with the stuff we already have. We already have a home network that has taken me ages to make (it's my geekish little hobby), and I didn't relish the prospect of figuring out how to get this mac on it. But sure enough, it just magically worked all by itself.
My only beef with it is that it gets a lousy wifi connection. The kitchen table is a random deadzone...weird.

It would be tempting actually to get that printed.

Re: Satellite internet?
With regards to satellite Internet....we live out in the sticks with just a dodgy modem connection speed of about 28k.....really dire.
We are looking into a two way satellite system called www.direcway.bz .....we do need a faster upload speed rather than anything else as we still do some web work for our Uk clients.
I wondered whether there was any rural dwellers out there who had this systems installed and what do you think of it?
thanks
