let me dream of an apple

cool iPod!

View 'let me dream of an apple' On Black.

It's really a dream. I went to an Apple store here in Northridge Mall to browse the new iMacs and Video iPods. I took this picture of the new iMac on display. The first thing I did was to browse my Flickr photostream and see how it looks on this big Apple screen. Amazing picture and an amazing machine.

My first ever personal computer was an Apple Macintosh that I had way back in 1986. That was my graphical machine until I switched to PCs because of the price.

But still, my first love will be an Apple for my graphic works.

I have to admit photography and apple go hand in hand together.

I switched a year ago to an Imac G5 and it still works as the first day.

Any PC after some weeks working, several updates, drives, complex installs and a few system crashes... is out of date and running slower!

Highly recommend you get one first chance you get. Have to say that the new intel-Macs are *much* better than PC's now (coming from a die-hard PC hacker/user for so many years). Bought one a few months back and haven't turned on my PC since (except for TeamFortress and Halo online ;-)

My friend, I am a software developer, and do not like to say bad things about operational systems. I do believe things must be done, well done, and can be done in all systems...

But, graphic, well, graphic is apple (lol). The first computer I have "programmed" was an Amiga -- less-expensive alternative to the Apple Macintosh! Also really great talking about multimedia. Long time ago...

Be sure you are not the unique dreamer here. :)

pixability  Pro User  says:

Stop dreaming Joe, start saving, have a garage sale, ebay misc items, scratch and claw till you've got enough and then swallow deeply and take the plunge. I have a imac similar to the one above (smaller screen) that I bought almost 2 years ago, and I love it. I dont regret it for a minute. I have a nice PC at work with a big screen but still the difference is night and day when looking at photo presentation quality. With the work you do onscreen using a lesser monitor is like having a muted filter on your camera when taking the original photo.

I dream that my desk could look so clean.
