more presentations

the more presentations I do the more I hate using a computer to do them, I have gone on about PowerPoint before here but again I found myself apologising for running a .ppt from my mac. today it was a good way to make sure I didn't forget something but that was about all. I was really interested to see the students I was talking to take more of an interest when I showed them my notebook (sorry it's a moleskin) I take every where I go (a simple scribble of ideas, plans and thoughts). but it created a really good conversation.

its not all bad >>

for ages I have said half joking, 'ebay is the route of all evil'. though I have to say that I have used the dreaded ebay to buy bits of mac's lately. and so far the purchases I have made have all worked out well. I am sure that some of you out there will say well its because you are buying mac bits from mac people, I am sure you will all know a mac dealer that is not always good. anyway a new notebook battery arrived via ebay this morning and having tested it and used it I am rather pleased with my £17.50 purchase. I had better not look any more as I might buy something that doesn't exist never arrives and looks nothing like the picture.
