ETA Good grief it is hard to edit your words when they go into such a litte box...I am not even going to try for this post as I massacred it so badly! sheesh!!! Your copy question has been answered which is good because I doubt I could have been much help. However, about the small message screen ... if you look just below the box, there is the one word Expand and if you click on that the message box gets bigger. This has helped me follow my train of thought. Well yes, that does help! Thanks lindag23....appreciated! Perhaps I will not have to go back and 'modify' so often now. That will be pleasant...

That celebrity net worth number for Adam is over a year old. It is an estimate of current net worth and it has nothing to do with reality.

Re the Mac / PC thing....I also really love my Mac now...it did not take too long to get used to and there are many things that really are much easier. I agree the delete key could be improved with the addition of a 'back'key...or a 'forward' key. Small price to pay though. Still learning the shortcuts....

Haha..Q3. I just started using my first Mac after almost 20 years on a PC so I feel your pain! :-) But to be fair, Mac's were usually the first to incorporate a feature so the question should be "Why do PC's use things backwards?...not the other way around....:-) All a matter of point of orientation!! I have been in mostly PC world for almost 30 years -- so I am an old dog! But Xerox and Wang invented most of what MAC and PC use for interfaces and the original mouse (Xerox) had two buttons, GUI and the concept of windows also invented by Xerox, was really better in the original version. Apple and Microsoft are forced to do things differently because they can't get IP protection or infringe on each others patents. If they were making cars -- the Apple would drive on the left side of the street and the PC on the right and we would be crashing all over the place! Seriously would be great if the delete key did the same thing on both systems. I wonder what it will be like in 50 years. ETA: I have pretty much lived with a keyboard attached to my hands for 40 years now. So my world is framed by my computer experience. I will get used to it but I think a lot has to do with the applications you use. Some -- Word, iTunes, graphics software are pretty much the same -- in fact, there are close to no differences. Others are dramatically different -- and I use some of those dramatically different aps.

I love Sauli's hair. His silver hair is almost old-granny -violet :D hmm.. And who it was that said that Adam and Leila doesn't share similarity, again? ;D (Also, Neil and Adam look alike when Neil smiles. Who has that pic of Neil, taken during the Glamnation tour, where he wears the teal colored merchandise hoodie with the hood on, smiling, and he looks just like Adam?) that was me and I stand by my words - I see no similarity what so ever... the only facial feature that is common between Leila and Adam is the shape of their chins... oh an of course the teeth - but both are "enhanced" one way or another.... ( as a side note - no-one in the Lambert family can compete with Adam in the "Nose" department, and least of all Leila IMHO :-[) ...and of course none of this matters, I love the whole family ..enough of the shallow end :D .. back to catching up with the thread.. I am ecstatic that Suz was there and got us the perfect quality videos! I only hope that there will be at least local TV reporting on the event, otherwise it is sort of a "waste" of a great cause.

While we are on the topic of Macs - has anyone ever ordered one of the hard cover photo albums using iPhoto? I was playing around with it last night - started building an "Adam album" and oh my word - it looks truly lovely. I almost flailed myself into a stupor. It will take me months to get it perfect and I think it could be worth it. Strange - I had no trouble switching over to the Mac. I find that itunes is easier to use with it. I plug my ipad or itouch into my Mac and they both know what to do to each other (prompts for everything!) And so much faster! Next stop, an iphone - my android is driving me absolutely crazy - too much work. I have truly gone stupid over everything Apple. And their customer service is absolutely superb. My boss had one of those books that his daughter created of one of their vacations at his house. It was a couple of years ago and it looked fantastic! I would highly recommend. Speaking of customer service, we were talking about that on Twitter last night. My AC adapter had frayed after years of carelessly tossing it into my briefcase every day to the point where I had to wiggle it around to get a connection. I thought they'd be about $120 at the Apple Store. Finally, when it wouldn't work anymore, I went there and the Apple reps were totally apologetic. "I don't think this can be covered under warranty ..." Then they started trying to figure out ways for it to be covered. I was kind of perplexed, because it didn't even occur to me that it would be; after all, it was my wear and tear that caused the problem in the first place. I said, "That's okay, I really figured I'd be paying for it anyway." They looked at each other like, "Huh?" Oh! Okay! Turned out it was only $70 and btw, the magnetic cord attachment is sheer brilliance. As someone who had to send her PC laptop back to Dallas twice to fix a loose AC attachment panel – a cord that pops right out and in is awesome. And kids, dogs, adults, etc. can trip over the cord and the laptop never crashes to the floor – the plug just pops out.
