Well I finally did it! I got my new computer after talking about it for almost a year!
My old one was one I got free from college because it was past it's "refresh" date when I graduated. We paid like crazy for it until then though! We had to get a laptop from the school when we went there (it was requirement that I was fine with!) and after two years got a brand new one through the refresh program. Ever since I graduated about a year and a half ago it's crashed every few months and it got very very hot while using it.
What kind of computers do you guys blog on?
I think we may have the same--a 17" MacBook Pro? I love mine; have had it for two years (almost) and the only quirk I really have with it is that it sometimes just switches off, completely surprised me every time. That tends to happen when I haven't turned it off in a while.
ReplyDeleteJena- mine is actually the 15 inch I think. I went from the even smaller one though so this is HUGE! That's a strange quirk, haven't heard that one! My old one definitely developed some interesting characteristics over time!
ReplyDeleteI blog on an Acer Aspire. I'm not sure what size my screen is. Nice and wide though. ;)
ReplyDeleteambeen- Never even heard of that kind of computer... looking it up now....ahh I see. Yes wide screens are nice. My other older laptop is a tiny little baby computer. At one point I was using a pc until it got fixed and then went back to it, that's when I realized how tiny it was.
ReplyDeleteLOL @ You! I got one too, right before Gustav. I'd never even played with it until my desk top died in the middle of our blackout.
ReplyDeleteBoth my laptop and desk computer are HP.
J. Kaye- Don't you love laptops, I haven't done it with my new one yet but I love being lazy and laying in my bed with it *snicker* you can do a lot from a reclining position!
ReplyDeleteIf it hadn't been for Gustav, I still wouldn't have messed with it. I know how bad that sounds, but all my info is on the desk top. It's so much trouble to transfer. Later this week or next, I'll get it out and work on it. I have promised myself.
ReplyDeleteJ. Kaye- I just spent last night and this morning transfering over some music since I'm going to get a new ipod. I've been uploading tons of cds this morning!
