Sharon's check written up and very tired and very quiet here today. I'm at the coffee Joe and it's 9:13 AM.

This is My Life.

Yup I talked to a nice woman who commutes from West Chester each day. She has 2 kids. She is living the life. Well there is not envy here just expectations here. I am living the life that seems to fit me. Now its not fitting for others who show more success than I but I try to stay in the here

13 Inch MacBook Air

Yes, Virginia, It's a Bit Pricey

the Pro but I am gonna let that marinate for a bit. I'm not going to meet my friend for coffee before another meeting. Well you met my friend at the Starbucks

Broad and Locust Streets

I went to the springboard media and asked  them questions about Mac computers.  I just had a 20 minute

My Place to Ask Questions

 conversation with the guy from springboard at 13th St. He thinks for what I do I would save

MacBook Air

$100 buying this year's Mac Air over buying last years model of the MacBook Pro. If I bought this years MacBook Pro I'd spent $200 more.

Simpler to Just Buy a New Portable Hard Drive

I would have to buy a new portable hard drive since my hard drive I have now is not formatted for Macs. That adds 100 bucks!

The Item that really jacked the price is the Apple Care!!! it's l 250 bucks Just for that!!  So the minimum I would spend would be $1500.

I hope Mike would qualify for the 12 months same as cash deal. That would make it 125 a month. I would then pay it off when I got my taxes.

Had to Chase the 48 Down

Okay I'm going to chew on that for a bit. Sharon thinks I ought to forget the "Apple Care" When I was trying to  catch the 48 it started just driving away and I had to flag it down. The driver thought I was only taking photos and not waiting for the bus. I edited  parts of this blog while on the bus. It was
