Written directly from my new MacBook! 2 years ago

I have had this goal for the longest time and seriously thought about deleting it a number of times. My good old Dell PC is still working pretty well so I saw no reason to change until university told me that I had to buy a portable computer for the majority of my classes. At first I wanted to get a HP or Dell PC but then the good impression I first had when hearing about Time Machine (blogged in this very website!) was increased with the Leopard keynote, and then iLife08 seemed just awesome, and the iPod promotion coupled with the student discounts on the Apple store were all good arguments and I ended up buying a MacBook. I bought the Macbook for a couple of reasons – didn’t want to get a Pro because I am going to carry it around a lot and I don’t want to suffer too much if it gets stolen or broken. Also, I am not going to do much multimedia work since I am using it mostly for school and finally… because I prefer white to gray or black. ;)

In short! I am very glad of my new Mac&iPod and can not wait for Leopard to come :)



back-ups = time machine 3 years ago

the new time machine feature announced lately by steve job for leopard pretty much gets me. i never take the time to back up and i really should considering how much worthy stuff i have on my computer. i do believe that the next computer buy i do will be a mac, with time machine!



powerbook? 4 years ago

i am quite used to mac since at school half of our classes (i’m studying in multimedia) are on mac. but still, i believe it would be kind of a hard switch at home… probably just because right now i’m far from having the money. but if i ever need a portable computer i’ll most probably buy a mac.
