sounds like adhd. When it comes close to deadline time do you kick ass and then feel foolish at how easy everything was to complete?

I ran into this the other day. Under accounts, you tap the account you want to delete. There should be the option to remove account in the menu button ... It just says sync now. Tap the account again. That took a few hours to figure out.
I use quicksilver and gnome do and launchy. The searches never worked the way should for me either.

I have a pro; that I'm selling so I can buy an air. Unless you work extensively with photoshop you should be happier with the air (I would be).
I have a Jetway Mini-top: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16856107... that is very comparable to a mac mini, and fairly reliable.

1.8ghz atom, nvidia ion2 ddr3 memory.

Mine is my media server and desktop (I don't play games). It's a little slower running osx than other oses but if it's a server, you probably won't care enough to put osx on it.
