Time for another exciting confession - I went a little crazy buying myself Christmas presents this year. I have always loved portable music, hence my obsession with MP3 players, my minidisc player, and so on. Recently Apple released the iPod, an elegant little MP3 player that holds over 1,000 songs that can be quickly browsed from a cool interface. After I saw the commercials and read some reviews, I couldn't stop thinking about it. I went to a store to look at it in person, and that was it. The only problem was that the iPod is for Macintosh only, so I would need a new computer, too! (I was "raised" on Macintosh, but hadn't used them for around two years.) I read some great reviews of Apple's new iBook (the cool little white one, not the crazy make-up compact), so that's what I decided on. Then I went further and bought a wireless router, so I can surf and read email at cable modem speed from the couch (oh, lazy joy)! So, that's my story - I'm writing this blog entry on my iBook with no wires and loving it. My iPod is in my pocket shuffling through 1,100 tunes, too. Don't worry, I'm still primarily a Windows user, but it feels nice to have a fun little computer again to enjoy in a totally non-work context! Labels: ipod, life
