Apple Convert

Well, I finally converted to Apple. A couple of weeks ago, I started having trouble with my PC. Power problems, I suspect. So, I started hunting around for a new computer. I’ve been eyeing the Intel Macs for a long time now, especially since Bootcamp and Parallels have been getting so much media attention.

Anyway, the one I bought is the 20″ iMac with 256MB ATI Radeon X1600, 1GB of RAM (for now), and a 250GB hard drive. It cost a fortune, but it’ll be worth it I’m sure.

I’m going to use my existing PC as a file server, so I stripped out everything I didn’t need from the PC to get it running stable again, put in a Gigabit ethernet card (the Mac has one built in), and wired it into the closet in the next room (finally some quite in my office!).

I ordered a mini DVI to VGA adapter from Apple at the same time, so I’m going to use the 17″ LCD that I’m using now as a secondary display (the more real estate the better).

Anyway, I’ll post more when it arrives.

Colbert Roasts President Bush

This is awesome. Stephen Colbert roasts George W. Bush live at the 2006 White House Corrospondents Dinner. Watch Dubbya’s face as he’s insulted in the name of comedy.
