I don't read Persian and neither does he, but what the hell. If you're going to dream, dream big.

But it's not terribly expensive and it's more or less indestructible, so I can throw it in my (largish) purse, not even in its case, and not worry about it. (It's also a lot easier to work on a plane with it than with a full-size laptop.) The keyboard is rather wonky, though. I have tiny hands and I still have trouble with it -- among other things, the right-side shift key is in the wrong place. But for a very portable computer you don't have to worry about, it's not a bad deal.

Happily, it was somewhat inexpensive. Do not worry, soon the MacBook Air shall be the Manolo's! The Manolo admits that this little computer was the impulse purchase.

He is truly a fountain of knowledge. Another good source of cooking science info is Shirley Corriher, who is somewhat more easily readable than McGee. Ah, Harold McGee.

Why, why? My heart breaks that a Mac user would stray when looking for an "objet d'art," for surely le MacBook d'Air est assez d'un objet d'art pour tous. Dearest Manolo, why not the MacBook Air?
