It turned to be quite easy actually.
I use IDEA for most of my development, but since I work with many different companies, I often have to use Eclipse too. Every couple months or so, I make a point to start a new personal project in Eclipse, just to keep up to speed.
Today was the day. As I was starting to set things up, I asked Cédric a few questions about shortcuts in Eclipse. As I was lamenting about how I felt so unproductive using Eclipse, he mentioned something I totally agree with. It's all a matter of mindsets.
The more I work with IDEA, the more I find Eclipse's ways counter-intuitive. For example, I was asking about a shortcut to create a class. Cédric mentioned starting with ctrl-n, which is really nifty. Except that when I first looked for it, I could not find it. Why? Because it is labeled as "Other…" under the File->New menu options.
My IDEA-mindset automatically assumed that "Other" meant everything but what was listed above.
The morale of the story. I need to spend more time with Eclipse on a regular basis.
Tom is calling foul on Apple's use of benchmarks for the new Intel Macs.
Cédric is talking about mass hypnosis which I totally agree with. Steve has been rehashing the same keynote for years. It is so boring, yet people can't seem to get enough of it. Besides, we all know what's really behind a Steve Jobs keynote.
Al is reporting that Apple can't get enough Core Duo. Apple having supply problems? You don't say.
Todd is reporting that Microsoft will no longer support WMP on Mac OS X.
Geert thinks Acer trumps Apple.
Paul has updated his MacBook Pro vs. PowerBook G4 comparison.
At last, but not least, everybody hates 'MacBook Pro'.
