That may be the funniest shit I read today. I'm sensing you're frustrated Quo, is that accurate?
I hear you on all the fronts though, and taking it the cheapest route is probably the best right now, considering how bad the financial world is. Today Apple retired my Powerbook officially, so while I'm feeling nostalgic, I'm also feeling like I'm going to have to upgrade sooner rather than later, which means I need to decide on an iMac with a purty screen or the portability of a Macbook Pro. This, of course, rests on how much my wife sells her soul to a large law firm. Or rather how much of that soul goes. It's pricey for sure, but I justify it in that I don't have computer headaches anymore, and I can't really put a price on that.
When I went home based, the phone my Job gave me was free, and static ridden. It worked fine, but it pissed me off every time I used it. I tried to get them to buy a new one, but they weren't having it. I decided it was worth buying my own multi-line phone to save me from going crazy. That's how I look at the Mac.
Maybe we can go Mac shopping together if it all times up right. We can even hold hands. Don't tell Kyle. Hopefully though, the cheaper option works out for you man.
