Oh, don't let there be any cool new stuff..

When I bought my new Canon 400D/XTi I promised my wife I would not buy a new Mac for another two and a half years. Okay, I was insane but I really want to learn Photography and use my Mac too. So far even with the after Thanksgiving sale and new announcements the last few months I have nothing to regret. Though I have fear and trepidation with the January - February announcements we usually have to look forward to.

Money is tight so if I see something it has to fit into a real need. With a new job change coming next year April and less pay I have to be careful with my enthusiasm and spending. This will be one January - February that I hope the announcements, beside Leopard which technically is not a computer so I can buy, are dull and unneeded. But I probably will be unheeded and something really useful and 'needed; will be announced.

This musing is not going as well as I had hoped. I have a headache because my son woke me up at 5 AM and all the great things I had in my head last night are gone so until next time.

No title..

Just trying out using Journier in conjunction with Blogger
.

as well as uploading photos. I'm a Mac user and still trying to find a tool that is best for my usage and abilities. Kinda interesting the choices. You really have to keep up with what is out there but also either be lucky in your choices or be able to switch with no regrets.

Well here goes

My first post will be simple...

My first post is simple just want to let you know I have a aluminum powerbook 17" 1Gz 1G Ram, that is a real blessing. It is my main computer and I bought it here in Taiwan. I think one thing I will share is my response to apple products and third party hardware and software I become interested in. The other is I often wonder why so many people are having problems, especially with software. I don't know if I will do any catching up but in the future I will post my thoughts and pictures.
