Singing The Praises of the New

Wow is it ever fun getting a new toy. Spurred on by seeing how flexible and fun it seemed to have a laptop, I am jumping into the big kid's pool with this baby:
So far so good, transferring files over from the old one will of course take a while. Oh that and learning the ins and outs of Vista, which I think is okeydokey so far. And you would definitely crackup seeing me try and learn how to get along without a mouse.
Lots of people said to get a Mac, but I just couldn't bring myself to pay twice as much. Especially for what I use the computer for. If I was doing tablet drawing or web design or graphic design for a living I probably would have gone for it. But since I honestly just use this for my photos, email, blogging and home stuff it didn't seem worth it. I'd rather get a new tv at some point in the near future. These are the tradeoffs one makes in a single income family!
Sheesh, hello, new computer, you'll not find me complaining!
