I know thats an old, american ad slogan, but it always stuck in my mind since it was so awful,

Anyway, yes i have a Dell. A Dell Inspiron Mini 10v to be exact.
Its no Apple in terms of overall quality, but its pretty damn close. Windows XP is certainly showing its age though. Its very light, it weighs less than the rabbits! Its handy for light web browsing around the house. Of course i installed a better web browser than IE pretty damn quickly, in my case Safari, which runs fine even with the low specs (a Intel Atom running at 1.6ghz, 1GB RAM, some Intel integrated graphics)

Heres a pic of it with our iMac.

but i will be pretty damn annoyed if a new range of iMacs is announced today, cus we've just ordered a mid range 20" iMac (with a bigger HD), a printer (Apple are doing a rebate on selected printers at the mo) oh and a better mouse (just cus the mighty mouse is not really that good, especially for WoW).

And the nice guy at Apple gave us £35 off for no real reason :) (cept maybe cus we have ordered from the same guy on the phone twice now, perhaps?)

Oh specs on the iMac -
2.66GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
2GB RAM
500GB Hard Drive (upgraded from the base 320GB)


Anyway, reason for the upgrade (aside from the fact that its really about time now) - the eMac is dead. Well pretty much, the screen dies after around an hour or so, then pops back on after another 15 mins. So im pretty much using the iBook only,.

Well overall WWDC was alright.

The stuff about EA making games themselves on macs was a surprise, IDs new game engine looks AWESOME (cant wait for the next demoes at E3!) and im drooling over 10.5.

Safari 3 is pretty nice too, im using the public beta now. There are some slightly annoying things - the address bar autofill has changed, and defaults to the main site URL instead of any sub-urls.

So i keep going to my livejournal instead of my LJ friends page for example.

Oh and all my auto fill info has been FORGOTTEN. F**king annoying.

Im thinking of going on holiday by myself this summer, if i can find somewhere to go at what is a relatively last minute time.
