New Laptop!

Let's face it. . . there is nothing better than setting up a new computer! It's like new pencils and a pristine Big Chief tablet at the beginning of the school year. It's a fresh start with no baggage carrying forward. And this time, I returned to my old roots - I bought an Apple (a MacBook Pro). . . in the early 80's I started off with an Apple IIE - actually typed Holt's dissertation on it, hassled through embedded commands and printed to a daisy wheel printer - then advanced to a Mac before I bailed and went the corporate route with Windows. . . Already, I'm happy to have made the change. . . it feels so much more like home. I've had it with MS - I'm tired of the viruses, sick of looking for damaged registry files, and fed up with the garbage that goes with it. I just want an uncomplicated life with an element of style and class. . . Apple. . . I'm home again.
