laptop! laptop! laptop!
oh man... I'm in heavy debate in my brain about whether or not to get a iMac or a PC laptop. AK!!Such a major decision, it feels like. I mean, it is... it's a very expensive decision! See, the more I've been thinking about it the more I'm realizing it's probably wisest just to get a kick ass suped up laptop and essentially replace my desktop machine (however, keeping my big screen & ergonomic keyboard, mouse & wacom at home for when I'm working all day here). This way I can skip the hassle of synching - and never have to worry about "oh that file is on my other computer", etc. And that makes sense these days since laptops finally are really rockin and can keep up with a very cranked up desktop.
And then I think, well will I be bummed that's so heavy? (more goodies in the laptop adds a few lbs to it)... But I don't really travel all that much anyway, so really it'd be just about taking it around to coffee shops & the occasional trip somewhere. (Really quite dangerous for me to have my computer be able to come with me everywhere I go, dontcha think?! Oh my... let me just sew it on!)
But all I can think about is how *EXCITING* it will be to be mobile. I have never had a laptop! I DESERVE A LAPTOP!!
I can't wait to have some awesome laptop bag - like, just look at this stylish pair of "Laptop PJ's". Cute huH!?
And at some moments I'm sure - I'm gonna stick with PC... thinking after all these years, I just can't give it up. I am soo quick and efficient on here (my pc), and I already have all the programs for this platform, and I know how to maintain it and upgrade and dammit..... I just LIKE PC'S!!!!!!!!!!!! In fact, I would even go as far as to say I LOVE my PC!!!! (now you're starting to see the danger of this baby coming with me everywhere I go? mmwwaaahhahahhaaaa!!)
But then tonite, all of a sudden my mind is saying, "Nope, Willo... you're going to make the switch dammit. Macs are so f*in cool - and that's IT, YOU'RE SWITCHING!! And I get all excited about all the cool technology and how pretty it is and how I'll be a part of all the mac lovers in the world and designers and I'll get an iPod and, and, and....... !!!! "
and slowly the excitement starts to fade and my fear and intimidation (oh, alright and some laziness) kicks in and starts whining, "... but, but, but... I don't really know Mac's that well.. and I have to relearn so many things - all my shortcuts and all the differences, and how to maintain them - and I have to learn how to get just as fast & efficient on a mac and what if that takes forever?!?!" (I'm serious - I can work my way around a mac a little - but it's *scary* how little I know about them really - I get lost... and, and..... I just haven't had to be on one, ALRIGHT!?!? *exasperated*
See how exhausting all this decision making is!??! *sigh*
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
