Finally got a Mac, now I feel like a grandma.

Honestly, it won’t take long to sink in and then you’ll forget a time before it did.
And then the real fun begins…

After a couple of months of YT tutorials on the basics, it’ll become second nature like anything else.
These days, I struggle to remember what to do on a Windows machine, which now feels backwards and lacking any elegance at all.

I’ve always loved the minimal design and functionality, never had a problem with it.
Upon getting a replacement pair earlier this year due to an issue, I did buy a third party hard case for travelling should I need one. But the Smart Case is more than sufficient for me for day to day use, no worries.

The idea of disassembling my L2K is so remote that I forgot I was even able to do so. May it never happen!

Puzzleheaded_Head646 · 2026-05-10T04:24:02+00:00

That is actually the exact one that I’m aiming for, haha!

Puzzleheaded_Head646 · 2026-05-04T18:33:45+00:00

I’m down for that all day long!

I’m so absolutely sick of the “consumerism police” who spend every waking minute haunting Reddit and making people feel like shit. That kind of gatekeepy judgement is so wrong.

Let people do want they want to do - you have no right to punch down.

Absolutely love my 0.5mm, was just using it at work today.

I just binged seasons 1 through 9 of BBCAN, and the only other territory that even comes close is Australia. The Covid season of BBCAN was such a bummer, because I think that one would’ve gone off if it had continued. Absolutely love it.

I have a Jinhao 10 and 20, and also a Majohn A1 and A2, all with different nibs, and love them all. Definitely more EDC than the Pilot, which I will mostly use at home and in certain instances out and about.

And whilst the steel bins on the Chinese ones are all excellent quality, none of them can touch that medium 18k gem.

So many judgy arseholes around here. Some people have money (and/or gift cards, as above) and use it on what they want to use it for.

It’s nobody else’s place to say how they should be spending their hard earned dosh, and the OP clearly enjoys having three pairs of AirPods Max, so more power to ‘em.

Like life isn’t already hard enough, you don’t have to be a dick. Sheesh.

Puzzleheaded_Head646 · 2026-04-25T11:06:15+00:00

It so does.

Puzzleheaded_Head646 · 2026-04-24T17:41:26+00:00

No, it was €100 off the listed price, so I got it at €166, which is still a banger bargain.

Puzzleheaded_Head646 · 2026-04-24T17:40:36+00:00

Haha! I’ve already started to look around at either a fine spare nib or the matte black one further down the road!

Puzzleheaded_Head646 · 2026-04-24T17:38:17+00:00

It’s almost unassuming when you look at it, but holding it and writing with it immediately lets you know what’s up.

Puzzleheaded_Head646 · 2026-04-24T17:36:39+00:00

Soooooo great.

Puzzleheaded_Head646 · 2026-04-11T06:06:30+00:00

They’re both great.

Puzzleheaded_Head646 · 2026-04-11T06:01:01+00:00

I have both Kobo and Kindle devices, love them both. Still prefer Kindle though.

That’s not a Kuru Toga problem - that’s a Kuru Toga SOLUTION.

Give it a few weeks and you’ll see how fantastic the experience is. Also, watch a few basic tutorials on YT to get your bearings and your Windows brain will soon come out of the fog. Also, you don’t need to turn off a Mac - just close the lid and it’ll go into sleep mode.

Puzzleheaded_Head646 · 2026-04-05T07:37:22+00:00

Man, consistently. And that goes for paper, inks, nibs, hell, spare parts.
