Stupid “new iMacs”:http://www.apple.com with stupid Intel processors and stupid “all sales final” employee purchase plan…
…actually, I kid… I am kind of disappointed that they did in fact update the iMacs after all. I was banking on them updating the Mac Mini and probably one of the laptop lines, but I really thought that since the iMac was updated in November that it wouldn’t be updated so soon. Oh well.
My computer is still absolutely awesome and incredibly powerful, and will continue to have the same life that it would always have had. I knew they were going to start introducing Macs with Intel processors sometime this year, and I knew that and went ahead and bought a new computer anyways because I wanted a _new computer_.
I’ve heard it said that buying the first revision of anything is oftentimes a bad idea anyways…
Ah well. Let’s be realistic here. For what I’m going to do with my computer (surf the web, write, listen to music, watch movies, design web pages, maybe edit some video, play with Garageband, etc) I’ve got more than enough iMac to go around. Hell, my old iMac only recently stopped being able to do some of those things.
i have had many people ask me if i’ve had “buyers regret” about getting my powerbook right before this new stuff came out…and i feel the same way you do. it fits for me…no need for that fancy, uber-expensive stuff.
Hey, Jeff, I’ll take it if you don’t want it any more! 🙂
Love,
Mom
