There's no other company that could make a MacBook Air and the reason is that not only do we control the hardware, but we control the operating system.

I remember laughing an inordinate amount of time. Setting up scenes that involve ooze coming out basements, or pigs' heads flying through windows is really fun. How could you not laugh? ↗

I know many writers who first dictate passages, then polish what they have dictated. I speak, then I polish - occasionally I do windows. ↗
