The New Rig

Here are some pics of the new Macbook. It's a 2.4 ghtz Intel core 2 duo with 4 gigs of RAM. The Ralph Steadman designed Hunter S. Thompson artwork was a personalized touch the Apple shop threw in for free.  I haven't used a Mac with any regularity since my college journalism days and I've been a pretty loyal PC guy for nearly two decades, due in large part to my love of PC gaming. While there isn't much gaming goodness to be found on the Mac platform, I am enjoying the aesthetics of its design. I plan to use it for more creative tasks, particularly when working on freelance projects and expanding on my video editing knowledge.  The whole idea of getting a notebook computer and setting up a wireless Internet access point was necessitated by the need be able to look after Josh and Chloe while they are playing in the living room while theoretically working on the computer. At least that's the general idea.
