Hi:
I am new here and like what I see.
I have the macbook with glossy screen; for the most part I have no problem with it in sunlight unless the sun is behind me and shining into the screen.
I have 2 questions for the experts here:
1. Any ideas on how to protect the macbook from the water that comes on board my cruiser (sorry I do not sail).
2. Since there is no mac netbook, has anyone installed OSX onto a PC netbook. I thought that this was not possible because in the ROM there is instructions that does not allow installation of Leopard or similar OS X software.
I want to use my NAVx with newer charts and am tired of supporting Garmin with every software updates.
I ask question 2 after doing a search on the forum here and seeing scant info.
I hope I can stay on this forum even though I am not a sailor and a power boater.
Thank you
Gorji
