Month: October 2021

And by this, I mean being so impressed by something I saw at an Apple Keynote that I ran out and ordered it the moment it became available. Okay, we all know I'm a bit of a fanboy when it comes to Apple—a fanboy not afraid to call them out on their bullshit when I see it, to be sure—but during today's reveal of the new MacBook Pros, I was squealing like a 12-year-old schoolgirl. Could it be they finally listened to their customers?

Yes, I know there are more important things going on in the world right now, but I have the available funds, and after this past year if I can find something to help clear those dark clouds that are still hanging over my head since November, why the fuck not?

UPDATE 10/19: I canceled the order for the 16-inch model this morning. I was concerned about the weight and the extra real estate the beast would occupy, not only on my desk at home but also at work. (Yes, I take my personal computer to work.) It would also mean buying a new Timbuk2 bag since it would definitely not fit in the one I just bought about a month ago. I immediately ordered the 14-inch model with the identical specs as the 16 I originally ordered. Delivery date was pushed out another week, but I can live with that.
