iSplurrrrge

Yesterday I joined the "sex and the city" on location tour. It wasn't as exciting as the "Film and Movie New York City Tour" that I took with Ed. Partially because I was a lonely bird on the bus. The tidbits of behind the scene story was still interesting. Like Kim Cattrall was born in Canada and came to New York to study theater at the age of 16, Sara JP found out that she was pregnant when she played "Joy for two for one". The visit to the "pleasure chest" was a bit of a shocker. "The rabit" was at a special price for us from the "sex bus". I picked out a sexy postcard as a souvenir, its actually very cute. The tour itself was less than spectacular, that's why after getting off the bus on fifth and 59th, I was not in a hurry to find the subway and head back.

A huge building with an apple sign strike my attention right at the corner of fifth, opposite the Pulizer Fountain (for those of you not familiar with the fountain, its is the one behind the openining credit of Friends). Following the spiral staircase down the glassdoor of apple, I was amazed at the size and "cool" environment created there. This is the biggest apple store I have ever visited! (as it later turn out, it's brand new, opened only 6 weeks).

I had long contemplated the idea of trying my hand on an apple. Last time when I couldn't decide upon a "thinkpad tablet" or "macbook pro", fear of the unknown made Ed and I decided to get a tablet. I'm glad that we didn't get the "pro" at the time, as it turned out, the new "macbook" is much more affordable and just as sleek. The educational discount plus the nano printer sweetener make the deal almost irresistable. Knowing that I have a big of a thing for gadget, Ed didn't try to persuade me from such a splurge. Thus, on Jul 8th, I took home my first apple laptop, a macbook (white) with 2G processor. The 4th computer and 3rd laptop I now own.

Introducing, my sweet macbook.....
