and I'm a mac.
We're so excited, we've bought our first new computer in 10 years!
This means, we now have a computer that doesn't freeze up, and crash, our old pc couldn't handle anything newer than Windows 95. Also, it was so big we decided to move it to the basement a few years ago, and as family and friends can attest we slowly dropped out of cyberspace. It took forever to boot up, and the web and email was slow as heck. And as you can see, even I was shocked looking at the picture, our basement is pretty miserable! Its no wonder we never went down there! Dark, cold, huge spider webs and other creepy crawlers!
So we've upgraded, partially because we had to, but also to celebrate my hiring to permanent full-time status at work. The mac is awesome! And its so cool,just the monitor basically tucked into a corner of the livingroom. The screen is 24" of glorious high definition...perfect for movies. Set up was nothing, after bringing it home from the store we opened the box, plugged it in and started playing with it. You can do some pretty great stuff with photos, music, and video, which was the main reason behind the switch. (Other than the commercials that is!) It has a built in camera and microphone that you can use for chatting, photos or movies, I have to admit, I love the photo booth...I've already put some pics on my facebook.
So this is our big re-entry into cyberspace - email on a regular basis, an updated blog with pictures (even though I'm looking for a blogjet compatible with mac...feel free to drop me a comment if you know of one). I don't even dare think yet of the graphics capability I'll have at my fingertips...drool..drool.....
