As i said in my previous blog, I finally have a laptop and it’s a mac too! I’ve been dreaming of a mac since I was a high school junior and now I finally have one! So guys I want you to meet my macbook, Anita.
Yep I decided to go with a name that wasn’t on my original intended listof names. I named my macbook after Anita King from Read or Die. I got the idea of calling her that because everyone really likes “Maggie” but it sort of sounded like an instant noodle brand which somehow made me think of Read or Die (Maggie Mui). Somehow along the way it became Anita.
I’m still having trouble using the internet though, specially at school They used to configure the wifi settings for you but now it’s self service and it’s quite confusing since I’m still a mac newbie and the instructions mostly refer to mac os x tiger and not leopard. It’s a little easier at home even if we don’t have wifi. I did have to get an 10 meter phone chord so I could get online and browse from the privacy of my room. It’s only temporary until I save enough money for a wifi router.
Having a laptop did make my work life so much easier this week! I was able to get a copy of Adobe Design Suite from my boss, Mike, at Wowenkho studios and resume on the work I was doing. I still haven’t moved most of my documents from my old pc (Lisa) but somehow having a mac makes me hate having to sit in front of that old thing.
Wow, I’m well jealous. I’ve always wanted a Mac too! But I ended up getting a tablet laptop. Vista can also be a little annoying. xD Congrats on getting it anyway!
Congratulations on getting your new Mac! I’ve been dreaming for a Mac since ages ago
I heard that Apple’s laptops have better configuration for Wifi connectivity, so a little Googling on the web will be useful and quick. Anyway, to Marsha, a tablet laptop isn’t that bad either! At least you don’t have to splurge on a Wacom or Cintiq tablet.
congrats on the mac. I’ve wanted one for a long time.
