Somebody stop me!!! x_x

I'm drooling over Powerbooks and iBooks at the online Apple Store. I used to have a 486 laptop, and that was neat. I kinda miss the whole portability factor... and the new iBooks look sw33t. I got to poke around a bit with one when my boss had it in here the other day, it was hella nice.

And now I just keep thinking that if I were to cancel my cell phone service when the contract runs out, and funnel that money into an iBook payment plan instead... oooo. Hot stuff bay-bee.

Me and my crazy ideas. Jeebus.

Titanium costs too much for me at this juncture... and I'm also not seeing anything on the VAIO site that'll let me make monthly payments, which is the only reason I could conceivably get a laptop at all. And the Apple discounts for education (basically, anybody who's in a college or working for one) are also a nice bonus.

And I don't need a total powerhouse machine in this laptop... that's what I built Inaho for. :D I want a fun computer that I can carry around to class and take notes on and just do random crap with when I'm on the go. You know how I am about being away from my computer for too long. ^_-

And it's actually a goal of mine to eventually be well-acclimated to both PCs and Macs... makes me more marketable and shite. But my work computer is a piece of crap pre-G3 dinosaur, so hell if I'm going to learn anything from that. :pppp

ya dude, most of the people who are platform snobs are also platform ignorant. get an iBook and learn the macOS. it obviously hasn't killed all the other mac users who're using it. Nor has learning windows or unix killed any die hard mac users.

and the price/performance ratio of an ibook is pretty sweet, especially when you consider all the extra goodies like firewire and usb and built in ethernet, and wireless ready and damn, that pure sexy appeal factor =)

GET THE IBOOK!
