The hits, they are keeping on
Conquered! And conquered my ownself. (Subtext: You thought that my computer/PDA mishaps would save you from the new-Mac-owner LOOK AT MY NEW BAAAAAABY photo spread, but you were WRONG WRONG WRONG.)
It's beautiful. I'm getting teary-eyed remembering my Mac's unboxing.

This post proves I was right. I'm still excited for you though. Now if only I could get the smell of styrofoam out of my nostrils.
I did get to build a 10 foot tall fort out of boxed macbooks last week in the course of preparations for Tax-Free holiday, so it ain't all bad.
When I cracked it open my first thought was that the styrofoam padding looked like the fortress wall at the Parker. I need help.
(And I just sent it BACK to the Apple Store to get a working SuperDrive put in it. Le sigh.)
