I took this shot last night while looking for subjects for my 365 project on Flickr - this is a shot of one of the rockers on my front porch and reminds me of summer. My wife and I spend a lot of time sitting in these rockers, watching the kids play in the front yard.
Sometimes in life, you just need to switch things up. You realize you've been doing things either just a little less efficiently or outright wrong and you just need to make a jump into something different... I hit this point over the last year and finally had the guts to make a major change. Yes, I bought a Mac Book Pro. Some background: I've been a Windows (and DOS before that) user since roughly the 5th grade (that would be 1984/1985-ish, eeek) and part time Linux user on and off since 1994. Other than two years in college, I've used those platforms (and a little Solaris) exclusively -- that's 25 years of experience. Twenty-five years of learning shortcuts, time savings, and overall comfort on a computing platform. All that experience, shaken up and shelved for now. Well, sorta. This is what I think so far: Pros: I LOVE the hardware. Seriously. Dual video cards (one for low power, one for high performance) Upwards to 8 hours of battery life...
