New toy :D
« on: April 08, 2010, 12:45:34 PM »

So, the college I'm going to next required that I get a MacBook Pro... and it just showed up today. :D It's the 17" 3.08 ghtz model. Just... don't ask how much it cost.  :D (Though I can put it on financial aid, since it was a requirement)

I have plans to dual boot it with Windows pretty soon too, hehe.

Apple is like Satan. We're all so naturally attracted to Apple that we ignore their downfalls.

Note: This analogy is not implying Microsoft is God. Microsoft is uber-Satan. Maybe even Stan.

The only thing it needs is Windows.
I'm not one to misquote, but I felt this statement needed some serious fixing. :)

You all need to use your scroll bar: the windows are to the right.  Also, Dude!...you still have a landline?  And your mouse has a tail?!?  Love the desk...it has character.  So you still use pencils, eh?  By the way, looks like you need to do the dishes soon.  And I always love the time of spring when trees are blossoming...

One of the first things I noticed there was that there are two phones in that picture. I guess you need one for when you feel like using your left hand instead of your right. ;)

Dual Boot was a complete success. :D I can switch between either OS at any time, and they both can see eachother.  ;D

Now I need to configure/update windows....

Its really hard to get a single screenshot of a game that showcases its graphics.  :P But, Crysis > CoD4  ;)

I hate the scroll on the touch pad I feel like I am petting it. For me that is a downfall I like to pet my PC or dog but a mac???

But lets not be to negative the only mac I would buy is the MAC PRO.
