Got my MacBook Pro

Got my MacBook Pro

Sweeet! I just got my Mac today - at 11:23 the DHL guy dropped it off and I unwrapped it, and it is for sure a fine looking gadget.

I powered it up and got it up n' running, but it took me a while to get the WLAN to work with encryption.

I brought it home and started to install the useual programs and all worked fine even though most was for the PowerPC and not for the new Intel Dual Core processor. The speed is great for these applications and everything works - except the Cisco VPN.

I got a -51 error which said that it couldn't start when there was not connection to the internet, but I was online. I searched Cisco useless site but it wasn't possible to find anything. After googling I found that Cisco had a new version of their VPN client (4.9.00 (0050)) that should be universal binary. It was impossible to find it on the cisco homepage for download so I ended up by finding it on some UCLA website and then I could download it. This works fine and now I am online on our exchange server.

Now I started to download all files from my sony PC and this is a problem. I got my Sony PC mounted, but the MacBook Pro keeps stalling and I have to reboot. Funny how they all say that you should do the switch so you shouldn't reboot.

Somebody noticed that UCLA has put a username/password on the download for the Cisco VPN OS X universal download, but I found it for public download on homepage for University of Minnesota. http://www1.umn.edu/adcs/help/vpn/

Good luck. I have been running with this application for 4 months now and it is extreemly stable.
