Hi Ibrahim,
It will be a laugh, but that's all. Not at all productive.
All the best
Steve

Hi Steve.
I'm no fan of apple, but my brother is what one would term a mac addict.
He's got it all, the MacBook, the MacMinny, airport express wireless
streaming system, Time Capsule which is a router with hard drive and of
course the IPhone. You can't even connect an external bluetooth keyboard to
that 3GS, but I'll give it a go if only for a laugh.
All the best, Ibrahim.
