First Mac!

Mmmmm! Black Friday did me hella good!

I am in SC right now, and yesterday, I almost gave up waiting in the 800+ person line to get into Best Buy. I decided to run and get some socks and then my mom called and said they let everybody in, instead of 100 at a time.
I didnt expect to get much, but I ended up overwhelmed.
[they had a built in apple store]
What I got: 20" iMac, Apple Wireless Keyboard & Mouse, Office:Mac 2004 [when I get back to florida, I am going to upgrade to '08], JVC camcorder w/ dvd burner, Georgeforman G5? [LOL!], [2] Limited Edition Tom-Tom One's, a few other things, and a hefty load of warrantys.

I am sitting in the lobby of where I am staying, but when I can't wait until I get home to use my iMac on my network and do whatever I want.

I took it out of the box at our house thingy, but they didnt have wireless there, so I packed it back up for the ride home tomorrow, and brought just my laptop down to the lobby.

So I am really excited!


How was everybody else's christmas?

Oh, and I got a Wii from Target before I left to go on vacation.
That pretty much concludes my christmas, because I will be away from my family most of christmas break[remember, I am only 14, so yes I have a set christmas break.

I kind of got what you did, but I got a 24" from MacMall with EVERYTHING upgraded to it's fullest. They had sales for 25% off, then I had a 25% coupon so I saved HELLA lot of money there.

Then I got a 22" monitor for my PC, Super Mario Galaxy, Assassins Creed, Call of Duty 4, Mario & Luigi at The Olympics.

For my mom I got a Nano from Mac themeselves, and put a alser graving on it for her. She doesn't know yet, but I had it delivered in her name but with a note in it saying "Thanks for everything.

-Shawn"

I might get my cousins a mac mini for a simple macbook tomorrow. Some places have weekend sales, aswell.

Well, this was just a spur of the moment decision, I am sure I could have got something better for the same amount.

Mine was $1499: 2.4GHz, 1GB Memory, 320 GB HD, 20" Monitor.

My mom had never wanted to get a Mac, and always new I wanted one. We have a super old desktop that nobody uses, we just use the two laptops in the house.

So it was kinda because she wanted a new desktop, so somehow, I have to fit my laptop and desktop on my desk in my room =]

From how much I have used it, which isn't much, it seems awesome. I can't wait until I get to my house and get on the internet. Then I can download stuff and all.

i just got back from the apple store for my sister. She wants a macbook before she goes off to college next year. I played around with leopard while i was there and it seemed really cool....i also watched the guided tour on apples website. I think if i did not just upgrade to windows vista home premium i would have gotten a macbook....o well....i ahve always been a PC guy and never thought about switching to a mac, but my iPhone is leaning me toward a mac more and more

Well, I have two windows laptops. One is a HP dv6000 series with vista home premium.

But for the only desktop in the house, I think the iMac hit it home. I love how it is all built in.

The only Mac I've had was one running OS 8. It annoyed the **** out of me, and I haven't used one since. I'd consider getting one, though, if I hadn't just received a Vista laptop for graduation.

I'm attempting to hold out until they release a tablet mac. I currently have a entry level convertable notebook. I've decided that I am def done with purchasing windows boxes. It's just the stability that I like on macs. Congrats to ya on your iMac!

As for Black Friday, I went out to just window shop really. Buddy of mine got a 50" DLP Projection TV for $800, plus a Compaq Notebook for ~ $350. Not too bad. My gf spent my money for me lol.

I love my Mac. I have Parallels on it so that if I have to use Windows, I can, but I rarely use Windows. Enjoy your Mac
