First, the bad news. My old laptop, a HP Tablet PC stopped working! :( It just wouldn't switch on! :(
The good news:
I bought a new laptop! And it isn't just some laptop, it is the new Macbook Aluminium!Since I started working with Macs, I've loved it; well, one of the places where I work, I've been given an iMac workstation, and the other place, a Macbook itself! Mac seems to be all about the user interface! It was difficult to adjust in the beginning, after 20 years of using Windows, it would take a considerable amount of time to switch to a "no-Start-Menu-and-no-ctrl-with-command-key" system! And I needn't wait for hours for the laptop to boot up. Its quick and easy! And as Macs come with Apache built in, I can host my own website, WOW! Take a look at the specs and a video and several impressive pictures at the Apple Macbook site.
The minute I decided to buy it, I went to the Chandler Fashion Center, rushed to the Apple store, checked out a demo there, and then, Kaching! On their side, though! Hehe! Thanks to the discount I got through ASU, an impressive Macbook was in my hands for an affordable price; the mac was worth it! It was only after I bought the Mac that I started admiring the ambience of the mall! I was that crazy about the Mac!
Now, about the mall, I went quite late, around 7:30pm, so didn't have enough time to check out most of the places, but I did watch the musical fountains there. I stood there for a purple moment - the fountain swaying and dancing to the cadence of the music, and inside me, there were purple butterflies dancing about, in a shiny purple background, hey, it was the purple (both in color and in a magical sense) background of a Mac desktop!I was so immersed in the moment, that I didn't realize that the "moment" was actually an entire span of 20 minutes! I didnt know if there were people around me, or if anyone saw me, or if anyone thought I was autistic - my face had a big grin and I was apparently staring into a faraway galaxy, indeed, the background image of the Mac! I didn't care. To me all that mattered was the macbook! So deep and intense is my love for it, that I put away blogging for two days; I wanted to spend all my time with my macbook!
Aah... Talking about it makes me miss it soooooo much! I need to get back to my mac and spend time with it!
Oh, before I leave, here is one pretty flower arrangement I saw at the mall. Thought I'll take a picture and share it with you guys!XOXO,
Mac-ed 'n' Mesmerized.
