The opposite of skeuomorphism (making computer stuff mimic real world options).
It’s when you expect real world objects to behave like a computer.

I’m still stuck wondering which way to go, as a 15 inch laptop has one major problem – it won’t fit into a hotel safe that easily. I’m sort of wondering if I really just want a 13 inch retina macbook pro, which doesn’t really exist yet.

And poor virtual host support – have bought VirtualHostX, which does the job well.
Now I just need to rebuild the whole thing, although the blog entries are here, which is a start.
