Lecturer: Okay guys I think you better settle down now
Claire: Quick, she said settle down, will you marry me?
Vivienne: What?
Lecturer: If you're running a news burrow...
Vivienne: Bureau, he meant bureau right?
Lecturer: ... chief of the news burrow ...
Claire: Rabbits unite!
Viv: You know, if he talked faster we'd end within an hour.
Claire: If he actually said something useful, we'd end in three seconds.
Well, to be be fair, he did give us the link to Theft Sensor, a free beta program for Macbooks. If you're going to the bathroom or somewhere quick, and you're worried while your friends are talking someone will nab your laptop, behold! Now there is Theft Sensor to save the day! I can use the remote control that comes with my Mac like those car key things to turn on the alarm. Then, if anyone tries to be funny by, say, closing the cover or trying to move my laptop at all, the Mac motion sensor will set off a siren.
It's the kind of siren you hear in action movies when the base is self-destructing, potentially thief-scaring stuff, however, my speakers are SO SOFT that it's really quite useless. Maybe if i'm very lucky, the person sitting next to my Mac might feel for a while that somewhere, someone very small is in distress.

oh dear that sounded very sarcastic.
i always think about making our conversations anonymous, like speaker1 speaker 2 or whatever, but i have this vague fear that you might think i'm making it up.
alas for insecurities!
