buying a new MacBook

Well i got the MacBook on Wednesday.

sort of the spur of the moment kinda thing. cause i ended up with a nasty cold/fever. and went to get it a couple of hours before i headed home for Thanksgiving.

was kinda rude, how everyone just kept ignoring me , but helping every other person that would be around the macbook tables.
i eventually got bored of messing with the Macbook and Macbook Pros. and just asked someone that was just standing there doing nothing.

i had to get the MacBook with just 1GB, cause they were gonna charge me $660 for 2GB. i was like good lord! thats just way too much. that would go beyond my budget.


so i just stuck with the 1GB thats already inside.
since its $175 when ordering it online. i just assumed that it would cost maybe like $240 or something to get it seperately.

so i was kinda dissapointed about that. then they tried to sell me the apple care for $249 when before they had told me it was just $56. at $56 i was like ook fine. but when at the register, i said forget it. i mean at the price, i should just get an iPod Nano.


so i stuck with just the MacBook itself.
they gave me a student discount. i didnt ask for it cause i totally forgot about it. they did ask for an ID though. so i showed them my old school ID. and it worked.


seems to work great. i did a install of XP in the rush of things. but i dont think i will need it until Monday and so forth. so for now ill just use OSX to surf the next. and use Pages and Keynote for the work i need to get done.
and use XP when i am back at my place. so i can install everything and customize XP to my liking.


for the most part i am happy to finally have a portable system. so now i can have a working computer with me at all times.
i like that its really lightweight and not at all bulky like most laptops seem to be. so it was a good investment.
