re[format]tarded

so my awesome hard drive crashed again yesterday...3rd time since Christmas. If nothing else, it has made me get into a good habit of backing all my work up daily. Not to mention I can completely reformat and get my laptop back to exactly how it was in record time now. I'll be getting a new, free, hard drive from western digital when I get back to America...so its all good.

In light of my laptop dying again, I ordered my new Mac Mini just now! I know I know, I didn't need to order it right now cause I won't be back for three weeks. Well, I did it anyways....so accept it :) I opted for the Mini mainly because of how Apple is really leading the way in trying to make more sustainable and energy efficient products. The Mac Mini is the world's most energy efficient desktop computer. When at idle it runs on less energy than one of those fancy spiral bulbs (compact fluorescent), and runs on less than 1/4 of the energy of the older standard bulbs (incandescent).

I got it with the little 120GB hard drive, but boosted the ram to 4GB of DDR3, and it has a2.0GHz processor. Nothing extreme, but plenty for what I will be using it for...mostly image editing and presentation boards. I also got the wireless keyboard & wireless mighty mouse.
