How to buy a macBook
It made me
yay!
 "I finally bought the MacBook!"
How I did it: I've wanted one for years, but was always hesitant to make the switch from my pc. My old HP notebook died, so I made the leap and bought my MacBook! I'll never look back. I love it so much! Lessons & tips: It's a lot easier than you might think to make the switch. My main problem was that I use a lot of gaming software that isn't mac-friendly. My solution to this was just to use my sister's pc for gaming and do everything school-related on the mac. It's worked very well so far, especially since purchasing Office for Mac, which I daresay is nicer on the mac than my PC. Resources: I did a lot of research online, not just on apple.com, but various websites that compare products.

How I did it: I bought my first Macbook three years ago, and while my old Macbook was by no means obsolete, I'd been hankering for a new one since Apple released the new unibody shell for the Macbook Pro. But it wasn't until my cat kicked it off the desk and shattered the screen that I was able to justify buying a new one. (Bad kitty! Good kitty!)There are several ways to purchase a new Macbook.

In the airport?
1 month ago
I’m flying home to Australia via London Heathrow, so I’m tempted to buy it in the airport on the way, since the pound is weak so this would save a few hundred euros – that’s a lot of money!
I have to wait four hours between flights so there should be time. Only problem is – I imagine there is a whole bunch of stuff that comes along with it. The boxes seem pretty big.
Has anyone done this? Is it plausible to fit a new laptop in your carry-on?
nearly there!
1 month ago
I’ve finally saved up the 1400 euros I need to buy the MacBook Pro that I want. So now I can buy it soon. I’m a bit nervous!
I think I might miss my current iBook G4, so here might be a nice place to eulogize it. Not that it’s dead. I’m using it right now. I feel so close to it, I almost feel like it’s watching me type this and getting upset. It was my first computer, and I bought it a bit over four years ago.
But at the start of the year, it stopped making connection with its battery – the battery’s fine, but the connection doesn’t work. So if it’s not plugged in, it’s off and it forgets stuff.
And it has a slightly temperamental plug, so it can sometimes switch itself off when I’m not careful. As you can probably imagine, this gets really annoying.
But it’s soldiered on for the last nine months somehow without continuing its descent. I thought it might get worse and worse.
I won’t say goodbye to it just yet. I think I should read about how to take better care of my next MacBook before I buy it.

I am putting this goal on hold for now. My laptop is serving its purpose and this year I am focusing on saving money. The item was more of a want than a need.
