I feel like such a lemming...

But yes, I did stampede to the online Apple Store, and helped contribute to its near meltdown yesterday. And I did configure a nice new Mac Mini, just for me. Why not? I’ve always held back from “making the switch” because Apple hardware is ruddy expensive, and I’m not sure if I could just switch from cold-turkey Windows and live with it.
Now, I don’t have to shell out a fortune just to try out a Mac. Just Cdn$629 (ok, it was over $800 by the time I was done “upgrading” it) and that was it. I already have a nice Belkin KVM on my desk. I can just hook up the Mini and take it for a spin. If it turns out that I like it…. well, maybe when the lease on my Dell notebook runs out I’ll be taking a closer look at those PowerBooks…
