So, I Got A New MacBook (Again)

Saturday, February 21st, 2009

Little did I know when I awoke earlier today that by the afternoon I would own one of the new aluminum MacBooks - especially as I had bought my white model only 7 months earlier.

My sister has recently set up in business, and naturally in the early months of starting up, money isn’t exactly flowing in. So she’s now working for our company on a part-time basis while investing the rest of her energy into her own endeavor.

Earlier today she called to tell me her Vaio was well and truly busted, refusing to boot up at all. Instead of attempting to fix the problem I figured it would be worth getting her a new computer. Recently my sister has been spending a fair amount of time with us in Kip, and whenever she is I always find her tinkering about on my iMac. So, perhaps not so surprisingly, she suggested getting a Mac. What can I say; I educate my family well!

Surprisingly though, she proposed I get the new MacBook and give her my ‘old’ one. Uhh, yeah. Seriously. So, despite initially trying to convince her otherwise (hey, I was trying to do the right thing), we agreed that she would get my current MacBook, and I would pick up one of the newer models. WIN!
