Hmmmmm......

I’ve been rethinking my choices…I have gone back to my original choice. iMac G4 (to the left). Instead of getting just the motor of the car (Mac mini) I can get the whole car with automatic windows for the same amount or even less….or I could drop a grand and get that pretty new M (the little baby on the right)….I almost drooled when I saw it. I just thought it was a monitor this whole time. Nope…that’s the whole shit…and I almost clicked buy but…

I just have to have patience…which I do have most of the time but not when I want something special.

Now that I really understand what I’m looking for and how much I’m willing to pay I am a freak. I’ve already lost two G4's on eBay at the last second. One I could have paid what they were asking but I lost by 6 seconds and $8.33.

The thing about the G4’s that I want, people are getting caught up in the whole bidding thing and are paying WAY to much for them. The last one I bid on went for almost $700 and it was a G4 with half the memory of a new M. I have to say to my self that it is new with a guarantee for only $300 more and free shipping.

I think what I’m pondering on is a guarantee. Also the fact that I could fix my air conditioning in my car for $600…or go and see about the 02 light that reminds me everyday that the Monster won’t pass smog. Paying off some bills I have. A ton of shit I need money for.

I guess my point is why should I spend money on a new computer when I could definitely use it somewhere else.

I only have one reason.

I need a new computer and I have the means to do it at this point. If I don't buy it now I know I'll blow it on some other bullshit just because I'm pissed at myself for not buying something that I know I have to have. I also know that I need it for reasons most people don't.

The one thing I’ve learned about Macs is…you can buy it for a grand and then turn around and sell it for just about that much. However, in and eBay bidding war one could get a hell of a lot more than the fucking thing is worth.

Mac’s are an investment, that I now know. I think are similar to diamonds. They rarely break and never lose much of their value.

Now it’s just getting my itty bitty fingers on an M…oh I didn’t say that.

Heh…yeah I did.
