got a Mac
I just bought an iMac, and I'm carrying it home on the bus.
Why a Mac when PC's are cheaper? Better OS, and I'm tired of building my own and upgrading piece by piece. Games aren't a huge priority, except Spore, which has a Mac version.
Why an iMac instead of a Mac Mini? My big 19-inch CRT is getting a little blurry. Still good for TV shows but not much else.
Why a new computer at all? I wanna code, and do video. And dabbling in Mac programming may be good for my career.
If I'd kept up on all the new hardware standards, I'd do what![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jecook is doing and build my own custom PC from scratch, and make it look really cool. But I haven't, so I have to buy something I didn't build, that already looks cool to start with.
