Technology takes over
After struggling with a four year old "Wall Street" Powerbook creaking and groaning under the weight of OS X, I decided it was upgrade time. I anticipate the laptop will sigh with relief when I downgrade it back to OS 9. For the first time in perhaps eight years, my primary machine is not a laptop. As of today, I am now an iMac owner. Yes, it's a scrubbin' bubble with an LCD display, but it slices, dices and makes julian fries, as well as running OS X much, much better. It can even make a DVD or two. It's gorgeous, it's a pleasure to use, and I have no frickin' room for it in the apartment. Guess it's time to rearrange things.
