All I did was give in my serial number and then it was all registered to nobody but me. What was more reassuring was that Apple confirmed that it was legit, with a years guaranteed with a confirmed purchase date. Yes I was the first to open this bad boy. However, the rapping calmed my nerves down. At one point I thought It could be an empty mental body or a refurbished model. I'm sure that was the case with everyone. The most important reason than made me overlook human nonsense was the savings! That leads me to the second point.Ģ) The Savings! Is it too good to be true? Thats what came to my mind when I opened the box. Plus some other European counties share the same keyboard style? So why have it different? Well, It's the power of the pound and the import/export business to stop you buying it cheaper elsewhere. Programmers, the guys who create things that we end up using, prefer to use the US version, now I know why. To my revelation, the US enter button and shift are more ergonomic, as you don't have to lift your hand to press it while typing, unlike the UK version I have been using forever. It has minor differences which are not really noticeable unless you're extremely fussy or you have an extreme case OCD. But when I put my moaning attitude aside, something that we get hooked on without rationalising, I came to my senses and I saw the keyboard for what it was. A few have complained regarding this issue, I almost fell into the UK complaining psyche. For years I have wondered what the fuss was about with Apple laptops but now I have come to see it for myself.īefore I state the good or the obvious that has been already stated, ill clarify a few things:ġ) The model: I received US keyboard version with UK plug.
