  45.  <h2>Why Apple keyboard?</h2>
  46. -<p>My Asus EEE 1000h I mentioned earlier is getting old. I am thinking about buying an older Macbook Air on Aukro. You can buy a used one from 8000 to 12000 CZK (417 - 625 USD at the current exchange rate: 1USD = 19.1CZK). </p>

  54. +<p>Two weeks ago, I almost bought one Air in auction. Than I realized that I don't really know how comfortable the keyboard is. What if I would buy it and it will be total disaster? I need to be able to write a lot of text on my netbook. I've decided to buy the external Apple keyboard as a betatest - if I'm satisfied then I will buy Air. If I wouldn't, then I will sell the keyboard back on aukro - Apple products have good liquidity and there should be no problem to sell it away.</p>

  62.  <h1>Linux Mint 13</h1>
  63.  <p>It's not that hard to make keyboard work on Mint 13. Default bluetooth manager is broken and pretty crappy, so you just have to install <tt>blueman</tt> and maybe <tt>gnome-bluetooth</tt> from package manager. Blueman is basically the same thing as default bluetooth manager, but not terribly outdated and mostly working. Default Mate applet doesn't work in my environment at all.</p>
