6 Days till my B-Day
⊆ 11:29 AM by Zach Tanksley | ˜And all I want are Apple Store Gift Cards... When I get money it goes to bills or other stuff, I need gift cards so i can actualy start consolidating money towards a new computer. So if you read my blog and were planning on gifting me, you know what you can get me.
Yah this is truly a shameless plug for a birthday gift idea.
Yours Truly,

I need a new comp... or a miracle
⊆ 10:13 PM by Zach Tanksley | ˜A well maintenanced mac can probably last around 7-8 years maybe even longer. I am sure the new computer bug hits pretty hard before that point though. A 12" ibook G4, used by a uncareful college student, running video editing, photo editing, and then also letting it fall of their car while driving is not so great. It is amazing this little white rectangle has even lasted this long, but yet I have come to find that it is beginning to fade away. I think I can stretch it out another year or so if I keep it on my desk 80% of the time, so lets keep praying for it.
Maybe one of those new macbooks will end up in my hands. Probably not. But I would settle for any bit of grace in the form of a better working computer. So this is just me, wishing out loud, dreaming big, that I will have a better computer that I can baby like I did the old missing iMac. Maybe you have my old iMac, and the guilt is building up. Send me a comment... They are all moderated, I am the only one who sees them. you can return it, no questions asked...
Once again, just wishing aloud. Hoping...
Potential new notebook design from apple?
⊆ 8:01 AM by Zach Tanksley | ˜I was just flitting around those wonderful "get your hopes all up" mac rumors sites and this article caught me attention. It seems ot be saying that the old ibook based concept for the macbooks might disappear and be replaced to look something like the old 12" powerbook g4.
My hopes are that multitouch will make it into the touchpad and even a better video card. It doesn't need to be incredible.... but 128mb would make for a pretty sweet basic machine, especially when you see 512mb and even 1gb video cards out there. Mac's have a reputation as a "for the artist" computer, so lets make those aspiring video editors a bit more amicable with higher video stuff.
