The die has been cast…

…and I’m hoping to roll a natural 20.

It’s taken me several months to decide what to do about my computer situation. I determined a while back that a laptop will suit me better than an upgraded desktop, but that raised another difficult question: Mac or PC?

In addition to making a choice based on technical specs and price, I was having a Mac/PC Identity Crisis while trying to resist making an emotional decision as a result of the proselytizing marketing efforts of either side.

I made my near-final choice over the weekend, and have spent the last couple days mulling it over and deciding exactly which model to buy. Ben was a champ as I (naturally) dragged him along my path of indecisiveness with me. Thankfully, as of today, that decision has been made. The topic of conversation will now turn to which flavor of Ramen noodles we’ll have for dinner tonight rather than which laptop to buy.

I purchased a MacBook Pro from Amazon. It will arrive on Thursday.

STOKED!

    Awwww dude! You’re going to LOVE IT. I got mine a year and a half ago and it really, really changed my life and accelerated my creativity. Bryan got one a few months ago and also loves it.

    Thanks, Elizabeth! Accelerated creativity is definitely something I’m gunning for. :)

    I bought a macbook pro after years of PC fails (on average 2 blue screens of death a year). My computer experience is so much better now. Enjoy!

    I would choose chicken. For both the ramen noodles and the computer.
