Today was a big day for Apple which made it a big day for me in a very sad and nerdy way. There were a ton of new releases but the one I am most excited about it the new MacBook (I am not sure how I feel about the name) which has basically every possible component upgraded. My 17″ Powerbook has been a real work horse for the past 14 months but with some of the things I do I am noticing that I could use a pinch more power. For everyday tasks this laptop is more than adequate. If computers weren’t my lively hood and my laptop wasn’t my only machine I might have a fighting change of NOT picking one up. Since that’s not the case I plan to put my Powerbook up on Ebay and go from there when the new MacBooks hit the shelves sometime in February. I’m glad I have been saving my pennies. If you want to contribute to my MacBook fund you know where to find me. ;)
