You're Buying A WHAT?!?!

Well, if all goes according to plan, I may be the proud owner of a new computer.

A brand new... wait for it... PC.

I think it goes without saying that I felt like a complete and total whore walking up and down the PC aisles at Fry's, completely avoiding the lovlier Mac aisle that I so know by heart. I'd been scheming and drooling over a new Mac for years. For years, I tried to tie the ends together, save the dough and pick out one of those gunmetal gray sexy towers of might.

Each time, sadly, my dreams would be smashed to the wall faster than an empty can of tuna at a cat convention. I'd need new tires, I'd need to go to the vet, I'd need to buy clothes, I'd need to pay bills, I'd need to go to the doctor, etc.

I just could never get enough scratch together to buy myself a new Mac, no matter how much I tried.

You see, I'm in the middle of jumpstarting my life. I want to go further, faster, better. I want to work on my own art, my own films, my own website in the comfort of home and hopefully start to profit from it. As much as I love my old Mac, it's seven years old now and can no longer handle the new and keen things that I want to do with it.

I can buy a PC for half the price and while that may not be the best choice for what I eventually hope to accomplish, it'll at least hopefully start making me more money. Money that I can then eventually turn around and buy a new Mac with.

PC's are just alright in my book. But a Mac? Creative worker's paradise.

Besides, the ol' Mac isn't going anywhere just yet. There are still tasks that it can peform better than any PC ever could, even if it is seven years old and severely showing its age. Maybe, just maybe mind you, I can have the two working in harmony with each other.

After all, if these guys can get back together, anything is possible...
