Have you gone and built your own dream ‘puter?

Drat - that just gives me a session timed out error, but yes, I do have trouble keeping the Dual G5, G4 Powerbook, and OSX Server under $15K.

Hrm…time to make emoticons work on my site…

OS X is nice, but be sure to prepare yourself for the "beachball of doom" !!!!!

Maybe it’s because I upgraded from OS 9 on the same system, but the spinning "beachball of doom" practically cuts my productivity in half every day. Boy, I really love giving the computer simple commands, like switching to default foreground/background colors in Photoshop and having to watch the "beachball of doom" spin for minutes on end. Although I’m sure Jaguar or Puma or Meercat or whatever the next "os x fix" is addresses this. (That’s another thing, I like having to buy a new operating system every 6 months just so Apple can bundle a bunch of bug fixes and name it after a freeking cat). Hmmmm…I’m starting to sound bitter….?

Correct me if I’m wrong, but this is NOT the first time you wanted a Mac….you drooled over the Titaniums and G4s didn’t you?

PS
Maybe its my resolution, but the font in the comments screen is kinda small
