cybertreason

Yes, I've committed a crime, and I'm going to confess it on a blog, like so many unwise people before me. Hold on FBI, before anyone starts taking my civil liberties away, I should mention I haven't committed a crime against the United States, but against the wonderful world of Mac. Last night, I betrayed my beloved iBook and ordered a Dell notebook computer. So in case Steve Jobs or Raj is reading my blog, here's my defense: 1) I've had to use software (MINEQL) for school that is not supported by Macs, and couldn't talk anyone into installing it on the university's PCs, and 2) I can't afford another Mac; anything halfway decent would be twice the price of what I bought. Discrimination and poverty. That's what I'm up against. Try not to judge me. Sorry if this is boring, but since Raj doesn't post anymore, someone has to fill in the computer talk.

A note on "antibuckeyeism"- I didn't mean to say that I am an antibuckeyeite, just that I was starting to understand where they're coming from. Maybe I've even been one in the past, but I'm starting to appreciate the little things that make the Midwest unique and even interesting. If you can't think of any, well, maybe I'll mention some in my posts, or maybe it's a topic for a spinoff blog. Because I don't waste nearly enough time on the internet now....

Well, while I must say I understand the need for a switch it makes me a bit sad.

But between OU school of TCOM and myself owning a mac I have been easily turned into a mac eliteist, especially within the school of TCOM (Mac has Final Cut Pro... i mean come on people!!!)

and i also understand Antibuckeyism, having driven across the majority of souther ohio in the last weekend (Athens to new lancaster to athens to thornville to columbus to cincy to athens) I must say that sometimes you just cant stand the corfields and othertimes its the horrible amounts of urban development that get to you.

anyways I hope you're having a wonderful week
