Which reminds me, I need to check on my MacMini memory. I've had a MacMini 2 for a while, however, I have decided that for development I need a portable device.
So I went to the Apple site and the chat convinced me I needed a Mac Book Pro. Of course, I have to touch something before I buy so I want to one of the local stores. The salesman taught me a cute trick, which makes the Mac work like the Windows Key — command space bar.
He also suggested I increase the memory on the Mac Mini.
Anyway, I ended up buying a MacBook Pro at Best Buy. Older model. It's heavy after messing with the Surfaces, that's for sure. It isn't going on any trips anytime soon.
I've got xcode loaded on it. I'm still trying to figure out how my student made a website with it, but that's my first exploration. Also need to figure out how to do Java with it, but that's not pressing since I don't have any students enrolled in Java.
FYI: I discovered my blog posts are hitting Facebook automatically so I'll be posting the messing posts over the next few days. Or not.
