I remember, when the first Titanium Powerbook was released, having something akin to what I must describe, simply, as a &quot;Writers Moment of Nirvana&quot;.<p>I&#x27;d just received the machine, a reward for a schedule met, on a Friday afternoon.  Charged, ready to go, I put it in my briefcase (in 2000, this was a phenomenon like no other), and .. left the office.  With the power supply, box, etc.<p>So I had a weekends&#x27; worth of &quot;fresh tiBook&quot; time .. a very visceral and surreal moment as I transitioned from &quot;Ops-Center&quot; bound, to &quot;can hack Unix code in the park&quot;.<p>I climbed the hills of Griffith Park, and camped out at the (then-) recently burned-out hills, under what was once some old tree.  I wish I&#x27;d known its species, but I&#x27;ll never forget the scene; the entirety of the LA basin beneath me, as far as the Pacific, and me perched atop it.  Press the button.<p>BONG!<p>I had nothing much to run on it, so I opened Terminal, fired up vi, adjusted the font to what was then an amazing degree of clarity, and wrote.  For as long as the batteries held out, I set up my personal diary, pure text mode, and got it all out.<p>Still had power for a few mail-checks and touchups over the weekend, powered out on Sunday evening.  The next day in LA, Monday morning, I went on the hunt for a power supply.<p>Hasn&#x27;t been the same since.<p>My point?  You don&#x27;t need an app for that.  Just vi.
