I haven't mentioned it here before, but I recently became the proud owner of an iMac (it was my traditional "Christmas gift to myself")! I've loved the design of the iMac since it was first available, but I wasn't too fond of the screen sizes larger than 15-inch - they just seem to throw off the aesthetics since they're so wide. Anyway, I was able to get a refurbished 15-inch model (with a G4 and SuperDrive) for just over $1,000, which seemed like a steal to me. I've had it since November, and my digital life has definitely improved! The speed is really nice for certain things (especially video editing), and now I can finally burn DVDs (which made for a fun Christmas gift project for my pals this year). I'm also using it as my iTunes server, so all 7,500+ of my tracks are usually blasting through my condo (I have the iMac in the loft upstairs, so the sound drifts down below and fills the whole place!). It's fun to control the iMac with my wireless iBook from downstairs via VNC, too. It's a beautiful machine - I'm happy to have a multi-Mac house!Labels: life, mac
