Now THIS is how flying oughta be
« on: November 19, 2009, 06:28:08 PM »
In the Porter Airlines waiting area right now - just had a lovely cup of Tazo tea and some shortbread (FREE) and am posting this from a nice 2GHz Core 2 Duo Intel iMac - of which they have many. They need to update the OS though - it's at 10.5.2 wink.gif

COOL. biggrin.gif

Flight delayed though...may end up getting on a bus for Pearson (Toronto's main airport - I'm at the Island Airport downtown right now) because of fog over the lake. sad.gif They're shipping the folks who were going to Montreal off to Pearson right now.

Appears that the whole airline runs on Macs - first time I've seen that! iMacs at the check-in gates too. smile.gif

Interesting - they block access to some sites - blogs and forums, World of Warcraft (my son tried that from his MacBook!) but for some reason or other, TS doesn't register on their radar. Couldn't get to ehMac though. Understandable, I guess, since they probably don't want any legal issues should people misbehave.
