New Toy

Not long ago, I decided to replace my hinky old iBook with a new MacBook. I just got it today and I'm getting the basic setup and software updates done. Then, tomorrow evening, I will move all my stuff from the Maxtor external firewire drive I've been running the iBook off of (since the hard drive doesn't work properly) to the new MacBook. It will be nice to have a truly portable laptop again -- the iBook has not been portable for quite some time because it had to run off an external drive. After the move is complete, I will see if I can sell the iBook for parts or to someone who would be interested in fixing it. I didn't think the iBook was worth the money it would take to fix it.

I love what I've seen of the MacBook so far...the Leopard operating system looks really nice. And it's so much faster than the iBook. I had no problems connecting to my wireless network. I've had some problems getting my PC and iBook to connect to each other consistently. Maybe the newer operating system and network card in the MacBook will have less problems with that.

So, while I'm busy, here's some music in honor of my new toy:
