Adventures in Macland (Discourse Chronicle)
Comments(2) [A few days ago, I finally replaced my 512MB RAM Hewlett-Packard desktop computer with a new iMac, which completes my conversion from PC. Transitioning from Windows proved relatively painless aside from experiencing empty folders when I burned a copy of my transferred files. For some reason, my iMac saved my files, but did not copy them on my CD-RW.
The only annoying thing about switching to Mac is reformatting my fourth-generation iPod because doing so means ripping my entire CD collection again (currently 2100+ songs), but now my iPod may be used as a portable hard drive. My only criticisms about the new iMac is that it does not come with the OS X Leopard operating system and its keyboard’s USB cable is not long enough. I am loving it anyway! BK]

I really want a new iMac but I find myself waiting for Leopard (and for trina to finish grad school and free up some cash.)
I got used to having one at UWSP, and now I’m back on PC here in Iowa, and I really miss my iMac.
I know that whenever I work on a Mac, I am more productive, but I do plan on buying Leopard when it comes out. I want it for Boot Camp, so I may run Windows Vista on the iMac, that way Elizabeth will not go into shock from working on a Mac now and again =)
