man, looking at the new macbook and i'm extremely impressed.
it's amazing looking. it's like a mini macbook pro.
led lit screen, led lit keyboard, nvidia 9400m graphics chip, .95" thick, 4.5 pounds.
yummmy.
plus it's all aluminum.
man. . .why couldn't i have been just a little more patient. heh i knew there were rumors of apple updating their macbook line. . .but man, i wanted a computer right then and there, and at that point everything was just rumors. . .nothing official. not even any dates for up comming apple events or anything.
but lets get real.
i have the last gen macbook, 2.4ghz core 2 duo, 2gb ram (haven't wanted more since i got it. . .2gb has been more then enough so far), 160gb hdd, 1.09" thick (dam thin if you ask me), all white beautiful casing (i still LOVE the looks of this computer), etc.
i do love this thing, and even though it's been updated. . .there's really not much for me to hate about this macbook.
sure it'd be nice to have a brighter screen, and a led lit keyboard, as well as made of aluminum.
but honestly, i don't play pc games much. . .i do play world of warcraft, but that's the only game on the pc i'm really all that interested in. my current macbook plays world of warcraft very well for me. i have most graphic settings at half, and i get good frame rates. . .and even at half, the graphics of this game look amazing. i certianly will not complain about the performance of this machine. . .it's more then i need right now.
i'm sad i didn't wait just a little bit longer to pick up a mac. if i would've waited, i would've got the newest macbook line.
however, at the same time i'm fine with picking up my mac when i did.
it's still an amazing computer, and i'm still very much so in love with the size and looks of the thing. it's more computer then i really need right now, and i've had no problems with mine so far. . .in fact, it's the best damn piece of technology i've ever touched in my entire life. . .no joke. sure i've used faster computers, and i've used computers able to play some very graphic intensive games, but with everything the macbook has and does, at it's weight, size, and thickness. . .it's by far the most amazing piece of technology i've ever touched.
the point that i own it. . .well, it's still hard for me to believe. it's seriously one of my biggest dreams come true.
no worries macbook. . .i still love you <3.
i'm planning on keeping this thing for a couple years. keep it till i've got it fully paid off, and am starting to be held back by it.
who knows what apple will have out in the next 2-3 years.
one thing's for sure. . .after owning this macbook, apple will be the first place i look for a new notebook replacement.
i'm willing to pay the extra money on their computers. they cost a premium. . .but man are they all amazing.
i hate the new macbook, because for a second there. . .it made me regret owning my current macbook. . .lol.

i love my new mac :)
well, as i stated earlier, my macbook arrived in the mail today.
everything feels like a complete daze to me.
now i will admit that i am extremely tired (lol this dam mac wont let me goto sleep! ;p), so that may have a little to do with it.
it's just that it hasn't really impacted me yet.
I HAVE A MACBOOK! AND IT'S AMAZING!
it's been at least 2 years (probably 3, or possibly even more) since i've owned a computer that runs. i've been living off of my lg voyager cell phone for my main entertainment for the last half of a year. i love the cell phone, and it's hands down the coolest handheld gadget i've ever owned.
but i out grew it.
surfing the web is fun and all, but i needed more. i needed to be able to download files, i needed flash and java, and i needed to run programs.
my phone just couldn't do all of that for me (duh lol).
i also had my parent's computer. but i honestly haven't been on it much since they've received foster kids (my dad put the computer in one of the kid's rooms. . .it's a major pet peeve of mine when people watch me while i'm on a computer. . .the kids do alot of that.)
well now i have a macbook.
i'm getting wifi (my mac isn't picking up the mcdonald's signal that my mom's was :( ).
i've been on the net practically all day long.
i also put a bunch of my songs on this computer.
itunes is awesome.
i've used it a tiny bit before, but i really didn't like it for anything other then transferring songs on my sister's and friend's ipods.
but today i've been having all sorts of fun with it.
i love how easy itunes makes it to get internet radio. just click on the radio, and there's categories. . .there's some great stations too.
i've also been having alot of fun going through all the podcasts (especially video podcasts).
this is the first time i've actually had any podcasts, and it's been alot of fun. itunes made it extremely simple.
i installed starcraft.
i haven't played this game in years, but i remember it being the very first game i played on my first laptop i got (a sony viao. . .it really sucked). it's an amazingly fun game, and even though the graphics are waaay out of date, it's still an amazing experience.
i haven't actually played it yet, but i'll get to it once i'm done trying to figure out my mac.
i also installed a demo version of world of warcraft (with a 14 day trial). i was able to put alot of the settings on medium high - high, and still get a very, very playable frame rate (not sure of an exact number here, but it was very playable. . .very little laggyness).
i definitely plan on getting pretty heavy back into world of warcraft.
i spent many, many hours playing this game on private servers. but i had a level 20+ character that i had spent well over 70 hours on, and one of the servers crashed. . .i lost my beloved character. :( haven't played the game since.
now when i get back in, i'll be playing on blizzard's servers. i'm willing to pay the $15 monthly fee if i can feel confident i wont be losing my character again.
besides; the private servers i played on were never very populated.
i've been running off of my fully charged battery for at least 2 1/2 hours now. my screen is at max brightness. all i've done is played on the net, but it's still impressive.
it shows it still has another 1 1/2 hours before the battery dies.
4 hours on a charge? that's almost unbelievable.
not sure what else to say right now. i'm extremely tired, and need sleep lol (please let me sleep mac!!!).
i was pretty surprised at the weight of the macbook when i first picked it up out of the box. i thought it'd be lighter then it is.
but i'm actually happy about that. i don't like things that weigh next to nothing. . .i like a little heft to my products. makes them feel more substantial, and solid. i'm really happy with the weight, and oddly enough, the more i play on it today the lighter it seems to get. lol
i have alot to learn with macs and leopard. i'd like to know how to completely remove applications. doesn't leopard have a program preloaded to uninstall unwanted applications? (i haven't found it if it's there). i'm also not quite use to the keyboard yet.
i love this keyboard. it feels great to type on, and is very responsive.
but the keys are a bit small, and i'm finding it kinda hard to adjust to the keyboard with flashflashrevolution. (of course being as tired as i am doesn't help either).
but i'll get use to the computer, along with leopard. and i have a feeling i wont be going back to windows for quite some time.
but yeah, it still hasn't fully impacted me that i actually own a macbook.
not only is it amazing looking, but it's amazingly fast, and has some amazing software (including the operating system).
it all feels like a dream. i mean this can't really be my computer right?
but it's sitting right here with me in my lap. . .it's real!
I HAVE A MACBOOK!!!
lol i'm so excited.
i can't wait to get a good night's sleep (knock on wood) tonight, so hopefully i have more energy with my mac tomorrow.

MACBOOK ON IT'S WAY!!! WOOT!
okay. . .i didn't get aproved for a macbook pro.
i tried both apple's juniper card, and bill me later on getting a $2000 macbook pro.
just wasn't ment to be.
declined on both (i was suprised bill me later denied my dad. . .we just payed off an $1100 camera purchase we made through his bill me later account).
my parents were willing to goto thier bank and get an extension on a loan to get me my macbook pro.
but i talked them out of it. . .i just don't feel comfortable doing that to them (what happens if they need to get an extension on a loan themselves later on? i don't want to screw them up).
. . .
so that's okay.
i honestly think i was getting in a bit over my head. i was getting carried away, and getting waaaay ahead of myself with the macbook pro.
lets get real for a second.
i really don't make a alot monthly (heh you'd never be able to tell, what with my recent $1400 camera purchase, and now this), it be a pain in the ass paying a $2000 computer off.
it'd take me at least 2 years to fully pay off my macbook pro (at $100 monthly payments).
i do love the macbook pro. . .but honestly, who wouldn't? but yeah, it's just too much for me.
i'm okay that my dad didn't get aproved for the credit. i was being rash, and obsessive.
so i talked it over with my parents.
the macbook (the non pro) is an amazing computer too. in fact it's the notebook i wanted originaly.
i love the looks of it (i love clean white machines. i loved my nintendo ds before it broke, i love the looks of the ipod, and i just really like high end electronics in nice white. very clean looking).
i love the processor in the macbook (2.4GHz intel core 2 duo), and i especialy like how thing and light the thing is.
plus it's only around $1200 with taxes, and a carrying bag refurbished. . .much, much more within my means (i can pay this off in just over a year. . .which is alot better then 2+ years).
the only thing the macbook doesn't do for me. . .is play games (newer graphic intensive games).
but honestly, i've never been much of a pc gamer.
when i had a computer up and running, it'd run games. . .but i never played games on it (other then world of warcraft, magic online, and flashflashrevolution).
so the fact that the macbook doesn't play newer games, really isn't a huge deal to me.
so yeah, i decided to go with the macbook.
bill me later wasn't aproving my dad for $2000. i thought they would, but they wouldn't.
but i was almost positive they'd aprove a $1200 purchase.
the macbook is $1099 refurbised. i also go a small carrying case for the macbook for $30. the grand total was around $1186 with tax.
i didn't want to go over $1200, because i really wanted my dad's bill me later to get aproved.
and sure enough, it went through! :D :D :D :D
so within a week (hopefully it doesn't take longer) i'll be a mac owner. . .hehe i can't freaking wait.
i'm walking away today without my dream/fantasy computer. . .but i'm walking away with an amazingly fast, clean, light, small, and great looking computer. it's all the computer i need for now, and it'll do everything i'm looking for.
it's protable so i can take it with me wherever i may go.
it'll alow me to download all the things i like to download, and play my dvds.
it'll burn dvd's for me (great for backing up my photos).
it'll play world of warcraft, magic online, chaotic, and flashflashrevolution (the only games that really matter to me).
it'll allow me to surf the net (man i miss having a computer at my appartment to play on the net).
and soooo much more.
plus it's just so dam cute.
most people say the macbook is an old design, and is boring looking now (since it's been out for so long).
but i live in the middle of wyoming. the only time i've seen a macbook is through my aunt who owns one, but she lives out of state.
other then that i've never seen a mac in my town. . .so even though it may be an old design in most places. . .it'll still be very cool to own one in my town. ;p. . .sure blows away any other notebook as far as looks go i've seen around here.
so yeah, i'm stoked right now. actually it hasn't even hit me quite yet. I'M GETTING A MAC! lol so cool.
i can't wait to recieve this. i'll have much more to say about it soon.
till next time,
thnx.

update and a bit of chaos fever ;)
well, my photo a day project never happened (as you probably realized through my absence on this blog).
i do have my camera payed off. . .all $1067.90 of it. :) very happy about this.
i still owe about $370 for my 2 lenses i purchased with the camera, and will hopefully have those payed off soon.
it'll be damn nice to get this camera kit payed off. . .it'll be the most expensive item that i've ever owned that's been completly payed off.
on another note. . .i need a computer!
i've gone without a computer for the last several years.
i love computers and can easily put a good 8-10 hours on a computer given the chance to do so.
i've been having to goto my parent's house to use a computer. . .which my dad soesn't mind, as i keep the computer very clean (of spyware and viruses. . .lol i have 4 different spyware programs i run, as well as a virus scan. . .i hate spyware). i also keep the computer running nice and fast for him (i love quad core processors! lol).
but alas. . .my parents are taking care of a couple of foster kids, and the computer is in one of the kid's rooms.
it's a major pet peeve of mine when someone watches me do whatever i'm doing on the computer. . .and the kids do alot of watching me on the computer. the one that really gets to me, is when i get on the computer. . .then the kid wants to get on lol. he's had all day to be on it but hasn't. . .but as soon as i get on "how much longer are you going to be on the computer?", "i need to get on the computer as soon as you're done", "can you look something up for me?", "are you done with the computer yet?". . .
ERRRRRRR!
i need my own computer again.
and damn it. . .i just had to do a little research on macs.
now i really like windows, and always have.
there's alot of hate on windows vista right now. . .and i just don't understand most of the hate.
i've loved vista since it came out. . .sure i've had problems once in awhile with drivers. . .but everything has worked itself out.
vista to me is a fun, great looking operating system. i really enjoy it.
. . .
then there's apple leopard.
after watching a billion videos on youtube, i'm amazed with this operating system.
not only does it look amazing, easy to use, and fun. . .but it runs so freaking fast.
i've seen guys doing speed tests with macs equipped with only 1gb of ram. . .they open as many programs, and videos they can. . .and show how much it slows thier computers down. . .which their computers don't seem to slow down at all.
i'm convinced. . .i need a mac.
the imac 24" is damn tempting. . .great running computers with a dedicated graphics card. . .and a huge screen (my tv is only 20" lol).
but man are the white macbooks sexxy.
it's pretty much everything i'm looking for with a computer right now.
it'll run photoshop cs3 for me, play the games i like (world of warcraft, magic online, and flash flash revolution), it's amazingly sexxy, and it's blazingly fast (i'm looking at the 2.4ghz duel core 2, 2gigs of ram model).
plus it's light (5.4 pounds), sleek, and very easy to take with me wherever i go.
i've spent hours looking at computers. . .nothing jumps out at me like the macbook (well except for the macbook pro, but that's too expensive).
i really don't have much to do at my appartment. . .besides my cell phone.
i don't have cable tv. . .the only station i get is cbs. no computer, and no video game systems (sold my wii, and ps2 to help pay for my camera, and my nintendo ds broke recently :( ).
luckly my phone is able to do so much.
it can surf the net, and it can play youtube videos (through m.youtube.com). . .but it's slow, and getting old (can't goto flash sites, or download anything. . .oh, and did i mention it's slow? heh).
so yeah. . .i need a macbook now.
i'll be waiting till at least october a9rumors are flying that apple is going to update the macbook in september). . .but when i get it, it'll be through bill me later, and i'll be using the monthly payment plan (should cost less then $60 a month which i can easily afford. . .plus there's unprotected wifi at my appartments, so i wont have to pay for the net. . .and i'd probably go to a more basic plan on my cell phone, as i'll probably never touch this phone other then for calls once i have a computer).
okay now that my huge update is over. . .
i've gotten into a new card game. . .and i'm really loving it right now.
it's called chaotic.
heh i was planning on just getting a starter deck and a few booster packs to try the game out.
i did, fell in love and have since dropped about $200 on the game in the last few weeks :p.
yeah. . .i really like this game :D.
it's simple, yet takes alot of thought on how to put the deck together. . .which creatures to use and what equipment to put on them, how to position them, what attacks work well with them, and which locations work best for them. . .there's alot to think about when throwing together a deck.
and i love building decks.
i've decided to only get my cards from boosters/starters or trading. now purchasing singles.
i miss the fun of opening booster packs, and finding a card that helps your deck. . .buying singles ruins this, and makes it pointless to buy boosters. . .though it is aalot cheaper. but i want to enjoy this game, so it's boosters for me :).
here's my deck i have built now (i've bought 5 starter decks, 9 misc. booster packs, and a dawn of perim booster box (24 packs) and no trades so far):

i haven't tried it out yet as i just got my booster box today.
main goal? just to beat the living pulp out of your opponent. it's a flame based deck, with lots of flame attacks (i puule some much needed attaks from my box today, i'm especialy happy to have pulled my incinerases, flashwarps, and vaporizes as they all cost 0, and can all do 10+ damage. . .before them, my 0 costing attacks really sucked.
it looks pretty dam strong and alot of fun, so i can't wait to try it out.
here's a dream deck list i'd like to have eventually (may not be the optimal build as i thought it up in like 5 minutes. . .but it looks amazingly deadly):

it's pretty much like my current deck, only it's on steroids.
anyhow i could go on for awhile about chaotic. . .hehe but this post is already waaay too long.

till next time,
thnx.
i do have my camera payed off. . .all $1067.90 of it. :) very happy about this.
i still owe about $370 for my 2 lenses i purchased with the camera, and will hopefully have those payed off soon.
it'll be damn nice to get this camera kit payed off. . .it'll be the most expensive item that i've ever owned that's been completly payed off.
on another note. . .i need a computer!
i've gone without a computer for the last several years.
i love computers and can easily put a good 8-10 hours on a computer given the chance to do so.
i've been having to goto my parent's house to use a computer. . .which my dad soesn't mind, as i keep the computer very clean (of spyware and viruses. . .lol i have 4 different spyware programs i run, as well as a virus scan. . .i hate spyware). i also keep the computer running nice and fast for him (i love quad core processors! lol).
but alas. . .my parents are taking care of a couple of foster kids, and the computer is in one of the kid's rooms.
it's a major pet peeve of mine when someone watches me do whatever i'm doing on the computer. . .and the kids do alot of watching me on the computer. the one that really gets to me, is when i get on the computer. . .then the kid wants to get on lol. he's had all day to be on it but hasn't. . .but as soon as i get on "how much longer are you going to be on the computer?", "i need to get on the computer as soon as you're done", "can you look something up for me?", "are you done with the computer yet?". . .
ERRRRRRR!
i need my own computer again.
and damn it. . .i just had to do a little research on macs.
now i really like windows, and always have.
there's alot of hate on windows vista right now. . .and i just don't understand most of the hate.
i've loved vista since it came out. . .sure i've had problems once in awhile with drivers. . .but everything has worked itself out.
vista to me is a fun, great looking operating system. i really enjoy it.
. . .
then there's apple leopard.
after watching a billion videos on youtube, i'm amazed with this operating system.
not only does it look amazing, easy to use, and fun. . .but it runs so freaking fast.
i've seen guys doing speed tests with macs equipped with only 1gb of ram. . .they open as many programs, and videos they can. . .and show how much it slows thier computers down. . .which their computers don't seem to slow down at all.
i'm convinced. . .i need a mac.
the imac 24" is damn tempting. . .great running computers with a dedicated graphics card. . .and a huge screen (my tv is only 20" lol).
but man are the white macbooks sexxy.
it's pretty much everything i'm looking for with a computer right now.
it'll run photoshop cs3 for me, play the games i like (world of warcraft, magic online, and flash flash revolution), it's amazingly sexxy, and it's blazingly fast (i'm looking at the 2.4ghz duel core 2, 2gigs of ram model).
plus it's light (5.4 pounds), sleek, and very easy to take with me wherever i go.
i've spent hours looking at computers. . .nothing jumps out at me like the macbook (well except for the macbook pro, but that's too expensive).
i really don't have much to do at my appartment. . .besides my cell phone.
i don't have cable tv. . .the only station i get is cbs. no computer, and no video game systems (sold my wii, and ps2 to help pay for my camera, and my nintendo ds broke recently :( ).
luckly my phone is able to do so much.
it can surf the net, and it can play youtube videos (through m.youtube.com). . .but it's slow, and getting old (can't goto flash sites, or download anything. . .oh, and did i mention it's slow? heh).
so yeah. . .i need a macbook now.
i'll be waiting till at least october a9rumors are flying that apple is going to update the macbook in september). . .but when i get it, it'll be through bill me later, and i'll be using the monthly payment plan (should cost less then $60 a month which i can easily afford. . .plus there's unprotected wifi at my appartments, so i wont have to pay for the net. . .and i'd probably go to a more basic plan on my cell phone, as i'll probably never touch this phone other then for calls once i have a computer).
okay now that my huge update is over. . .
i've gotten into a new card game. . .and i'm really loving it right now.
it's called chaotic.
heh i was planning on just getting a starter deck and a few booster packs to try the game out.
i did, fell in love and have since dropped about $200 on the game in the last few weeks :p.
yeah. . .i really like this game :D.
it's simple, yet takes alot of thought on how to put the deck together. . .which creatures to use and what equipment to put on them, how to position them, what attacks work well with them, and which locations work best for them. . .there's alot to think about when throwing together a deck.
and i love building decks.
i've decided to only get my cards from boosters/starters or trading. now purchasing singles.
i miss the fun of opening booster packs, and finding a card that helps your deck. . .buying singles ruins this, and makes it pointless to buy boosters. . .though it is aalot cheaper. but i want to enjoy this game, so it's boosters for me :).
here's my deck i have built now (i've bought 5 starter decks, 9 misc. booster packs, and a dawn of perim booster box (24 packs) and no trades so far):
