Well, I’ve begun work on my new website theme today. Spent most the day and I’m taking my time. This time, instead of rushing a theme out in one day I’m going to spend time making it really clean and nice. And, I will also try not to delete it too, so there’s that as well. 
Oh, and I LOVE my MacBook Pro! But more on that when I’m not so tired. 
I was sitting at my desk earlier this week and I realized that I’ve grown tired of dealing with Windows and all the problems that come with using it. Every 6 months I was reformatting just to keep it going smoothly. And even at that, within a month it would already slow down to a crawl because of everything running in the background such as Internet security program, backup utility, Version Cue, etc. I currently have a laptop running Windows XP which has more then adequate specs to run all my software so that’s not the issue.
So, with that, I considered just getting a new Windows machine thinking I just need more power. However, the thought of using Windows Vista just disgusts me. I’ve used it at work plenty to know that I absolutely don’t like it. I even gave it another chance when SP1 came out but my experience with Vista just wasn’t a good one. So, that just wasn’t an option for me.
Not wanting to spend a lot of money in the past, I even gave Linux a spin. While my experience with Linux was a great one, it just didn’t work as well as I need it to. For instance, Flash has some issues such as no support for transparent backgrounds and that caused some websites to look very odd! And it doesn’t support Office 2007 documents at the moment, so that left me locked out of my documents basically.
So at this point, I figured it was time to bite the bullet and fork over the money for a MacBook Pro. This really was the only thing keeping me from owning a Mac. But, after a month of thinking about all the pros and cons of a Mac I realized that there’s a reason why they are so expensive. So it was easier to justify the cost of one and I went ahead and customized and ordered one. Here’s what I got:
So yeah, it’s a beast of a machine, and it should arrive on Tuesday. So I will report more on my initial experience. Until then, I will be backing up all my data for migration. 
Well, here we go again I guess. I really need to do something with this website. 
When will that happen? Probably never.
