I see no reason why you can’t go to the ball… if you get all your work done…

I was at the mall a couple days ago and I saw the little promotion Apple is having. Buy a computer and get an ipod free! (Rebate of $299). Apple is unique that they can do things like this easily. It is enticing, isn’t it?

So I thought to myself…hmm….what would it be like if I actually got a little apple notebook…

and suddenly, it dawned on me

I would be the evil stepmother of the Mac.

Do your work and I’ll hide you under my bed when you’re done. And I’ll focus on all your faults. And never give you credit. And don’t forget the garden. Then scrub the terrace, sweep the halls and the stairs, clean the chimney. And of course there’s the mending and the sewing and the laundry… Oh yes and one more thing, see that Lucifer gets his bath.

Well…at least I recognize that Cinderella is really pretty. Heh.

My little Mac-ella.

Anyhow, I’m not in a real need for a new lappy. My ultra-light (ultra-light by standards 4 years ago) Fujitsu is working fine, just that the reformat cds that came with it aren’t working. If I gave it a fresh reformat it would work better. Honestly I don’t have to travel that much and use a notebook. So I’m okay for another year. Next year…I should be looking at a new notebook with a bit more brains though. 512mb of memory doesn’t cut it!

P.S. The title of this post is from the movie, Cinderella. It was made in 1950. 1950!? I can’t believe such an old movie still gets played so much and shown to kids every generation.

    damn! I bought my Mac Book Pro last year with this deal, but of course that was only a $199 rebate for a Nano. I just shelled out the $300 for a Touch (totally worth it) and that would have been all the more reason to get it this year.
