I'm going to try to record my experience working with the Macs at FreeGeek. This will be mostly subjective train of thought, first impressions, immediate reactions, questions raised, lessons learned, that sort of thing. I'm learning here, so there will be a lot of wrong assumptions, paradoxes, frustrations, mistakes, changed positions, all those things that characterize a journey of enlightenment.
