One caveat: I already own Apple’s 23” Cinema Display, so I’m certainly not complaining - just looking forward to the day.

Oh, and for what it’s worth, I still refuse to use hairspray the product.

Yup. That’s the latest; though with work, family, life, training, church, more work, traffic, illnesses, travelling and other such things occupying my time, I’m a little over-loaded at the moment. My apologies (I will get to you soon, though.)
Just be patient, as there’s currently a long list going.

A first time for everything.
Yesterday I ran my first half-marathon. Though I’m still a complete rookie, I must say I thoroughly enjoyed mysel and am proud of my time. Next time, though, I plan to hit my splits and make my target time.
