"Once I felt that I had a decent understanding of FP, I asked on Twitter whether anyone could recommend a book, and got a very enthusiastic recommendation for this one from Sean Corfield." This could be read as the book was written by Sean Corfield, which is confusing as you clearly state the authorship of the book in the title of the post, and Corfield is not included. I think it's great that you are attributing the recommendation, but two things: you may want to make that clearer in prose, and you may want to link to his twitter feed rather than his homepage.

I'll let you know. I hear you on the screen. It was great before I got the iPhone 4, but once I had that, the iPad display did start seeming pretty low-tech. Gruber has mentioned that he has a pet theory that Apple will be releasing some kind of "iPad Pro" later in the year, which might have a "retina" display. We'll see. Thanks! I’ll let you know.

I've spent ages searching for mac os DHCP "airport has a self-assigned IP address"... How stupid that if configd is blocked by the firewall, you get a completely unhelpful set of messages in the GUI and nothing in the logs. This sort of problem is a major dent in Apple's attempt to be a user-friendlier PC. (Don't get me started on printing) Fantastic!

For now, I have solved it by un-checking Printer from the Sharing Preferences pane. Will that affect by ability to share my own printer with a couple of legacy Macs on my sub-net? I'll keep you posted. I had the same problem, using MacBook Pro in a mostly Windows environment (except that Little Snitch never asked me for permission to connect).
