The problem is whilst I ignored the walled garden and went to Android when I thought it was a good idea, I did have a dock connected to the stereo!<br /><br />It can be used with the android phone, but not as nicely as the iPhone... Hohum I suppose...<br /><br /><b>Lynn:</b> When I went looking I could find lots of 'Themes' but nothing that was actually about installing it.<br /><br />Again hohum... I will check out the android link though and see what I can do :)<br /><br />StaceStacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07907346657510908857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4187164070937704663.post-67484640821867286092011-10-30T22:20:23.383+01:002011-10-30T22:20:23.383+01:00Stace: I can't lay my hands on the instruction...Stace: I can't lay my hands on the instructions, which suggests one of two things.

But, god, do they test me at times :)<br /><br />Having used the MacBook Pro for a couple of months now the jury is still out for me on the design. It looks very pretty - that is for sure - but it looks pretty when on a desk. After it's been in and out of a bag 30 or 40 times the aluminium starts to get marked and it quickly looks scruffy. Our interaction designer has one a year or so older than mine and it looks ancient with the marks - something my Windows machines that are coming up for 10 years old don't have.<br /><br /><b>Lynn:</b> The first time I used OSX trying to get my father in laws machine working that was exactly my thought! He got his brand new machine that refused to connect to his wireless network (again MAC security was the problem, and he has an awful router that tries to make life easier whilst actually making it a nightmare - but the windows machines and smart phones of all flavors connected without a problem.) When it did eventually connect it had to download 1.6GB of updates, then restart, then download some more, then restart, then install some more, then restart. When I got mine I had exactly the same. In the two or three months I have had my machine I have had multiple EFI updates, and enough system updates to make people on a 10GB per month data limit get worried about costs!<br /><br />Oh, and Mac minutes and seconds make Windows look accurate!<br /><br />As for the phone... I don't suppose you could get instructions could you :)<br /><br />StaceStacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07907346657510908857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4187164070937704663.post-1767510290995443322011-10-29T21:24:06.078+02:002011-10-29T21:24:06.078+02:00Updates.
