At least I backed up my music correctly

Jeez, I did something right with the backup on the PC, the iTunes. I did not want to spend umpteen million hours feeding in my music CDs one at a time. I'm old dang it, I have everything from classical to punk to world to rock to country to funk to jazz to elevator schmaltz. I even like some of my kid's stuff, but by default kids hate their parents music unless it's old school that they discover on their own, lol.

I have never had a set up so painless and uh.... fun!

Well, except for the earthquake we just had, my husband and I both thought "Oh this thing better not get any worse we just spent some money on that 'puter."

Wow, this thing is awesome

I did it. This machine is far too beautiful for me. I was so excited that when my friend asked me what I was doing my response baffled her. She asked me what a maa was? Dude. It's an iMac. I'm terrified I'm going to mess up the really expensive mouse, but oh what fun!

My husband asked where it was (the computer) and I replied "It's in the screen." He's happy, he got my 20" monitor that I was using on the PC that I just killed. I'll be off to visit my buds as soon as I figure out this baby and get my music back on. I like my music and I got a free iTouch so I don't have to recharge my kid's old mini iPod after 4 songs worth of listening.

Happy belated 4th?

Still haven't made the trip to the Apple store. Will soon. Let's see what's happening today...

Hmm, can't seem to get away from the Apple store site even though my back is aching from using the laptop on the coffee table and my eyes are bleeding from reading tech specs that only make me more dangerous to a computer's health.

BadTux pointed me in the right direction to start looking, I think. As much as I like the Apple LED displays they are $900 and I already have a monitor that I like. I dunno what it's going to look like after the dvi adapter, but I've been watching Netflix via dsl with the VGA cable so I'm not exactly fussy. My brother made some crack about Chip and Dale creating noise on the line so I don't think paying the phone company any more money will speed it up anyway...

Hmmm, as much as I like the price on the mac mini, I'm not sure it's the one for me. Husband says ok to whatever I want (he bought me my first reliable car and I've had it for almost ten years now) so I might as well get what I want, huh? The kid's gonna inherit it anyway and her macbook was a worthwhile investment.

I hope Macs are harder to fuck up

Because I've had it up to here with screwing around with the PCs. Now if I can just get over the initial sticker price shock I have a feeling I will be much happier. I like my kid's Macbook and I watched a couple of documentaries on Netflix on Macs.
