I've held out as long as I could. With the announcement last week of the Apple Maxipad (now with wings! actually, with the way that Stev-o keeps hemming and hawing, it might actually have wings), and no other announcements, I decided it was time to make the big switchBACK to Mac. Yes, I figured out every discretionary body part I had that could be sold, and ordered me a schmancy MacBook Pro.
Please note. This is a switchBACK.
You see, I grew up on Macs, and then one day, Stev-o got kicked out by stupid people, Mac Clones emerged, and nearly destroyed the brand. But Stev-o came back, and then IBM got sold, and then my computer died, and now I need a new computer. (Ta da! The entire history of Apple in two sentences!) Oh, it hurts though. I hate spending that kind of money. Even on pretty gadgets. But it was needed.
Now, I'm just counting the days. In particular, day 15 after my new playmate arrives. For I assure you, on that day, the day AFTER I can return my order, Apple will revamp its entire line and drop the price of the model I purchased by $500. You know, I liked that kidney.
