I really want some new technology. I keep rolling about in my head what to purchase, and keep buying nothing.
The possibilities lie in an iPod, a digital SLR, a powerbook (er, MacBook), or a new desktop.
Since I keep hearing rumors of an April firstish release, I shall refrain from the delineation of my innermost conflagrations of thought. I shall “wait and see” until next week.
This whole Windows running on Intel Macs is so uber-rock, I can barely contain myself.
Honestly, I’m mildly troubled. I do watch American Idol, and Taylor Hicks’ rendition of Ray LaMontagne’s “Trouble” brought me to reflect on how my ever-shrinking hard drive does not have that album ripped to my iTunes. For a quick fix, I check the music store. I note that there are two additional releases by LaMontagne for sale on the site.
This is nice, but I am very much a tangible type person. I like buying CDs, I like buying books. I like having them. I like to print off my reading material from the computer. I prefer a literal datebook versus a PDA. I keep a pen and paper address book. This whole digital conundrum, where I literally cannot purchase a physical disc, troubles me (with no pun intended to Mr. LaMontagne). It feels so much like I don’t actually have it.
But I would rather have this digital means of existence than no existence at all. Thus, I stop complaining.
