Meyers Wed, 03 Sep 2008 02:15:28 +0000 http://blog.iso50.com/?p=2443#comment-64847 Scott- I have to be honest, I really haven't done any research on the new MBP's that are coming out next month. A few months ago I was scoping out the 8 processor Mac tower at $2500, then remembered the benefits of mobility that a laptop offers. It's pretty exciting to see laptops start ramping up to the same specs as desktops. You mentioned using the Dreamcolor technology for a live ISO50 visuals (for Tycho). So, if for some reason you do land on the side of the Elitebook, I will be pretty excited to hear if there's any humanly noticeable difference. Or... talk one of your buddies into buying, then borrow it for testing. That might cross the line of frugal and into something completely different... Side note: just got the 3g iphone, internet speed is quite impressive... liking the difference between 2g and 3g? Scott-

I know, a lot of people would shrug and say you don't really need those things, but they do come in very handy. for instance, when I set my current HP down on the desk, I just plug in one cable and it's set. if I had a macbook I would have to plug in a USB hub, the power connector, the firewire, and the DVI video connector just to use it with my desk peripherals, then unplug all that to take it upstairs. the lack of a dock is reason enough to keep me on the PC side. that said, the sheer badassery of the forthcoming MBPs could be enough to convince me to add those 10 seconds of plugging to my daily routine. justin-

I know man, I would keep it as "light" as possible as well (for everyone's safety). Are you excited about the Elitebook coming out this month? My buddy get's an 25% HP discount... temptations, temptations... Scott – you joked! *wipes tear of joy from eye.

Geoff- no problem, thank you for posting the PSD, really nice to make those assets publicly available. and yes, it does occur twice a day, but in san francisco we added a third, dynamic bonus iteration, definable by the individual..we're all about user interaction....

You took me by surprise, there's not a whole lot of humor on Scott's blog. Ah, my last comment was an attempt to make sure I didn’t offend you in some odd way.

I think nearly all the individual elements were created as vector (either in Photoshop or illustrator) then applied with layer styles that match the real UI. Some of the shape info may have been flattened but shouldn't be for any elements that are actually editable in the real UI. If you can name a few that should be editable we can rework them in the next release. @ Justin: I know 4:20, was just my attempt at humor. @ Greg: I suppose there were a few elements like simple backgrounds that remain flat but for the most part we’ve never needed to edit them.

Bob Marley's death or something along those lines. I mentioned "Berkley," because throughout most of California (especially Berkley), you see "4:20" stickers on cars, etc. April 20th (4/20) is a day pot-smokers throw festivals and such. Feel free to "google." Geoff-

Or maybe they did, but just flattened them before releasing the PSD to the masses. I’m surprised they’re not using more layer styles to make things easier to control and edit.
