About the computers, Macs are definitely an investment purchase, but they're well worth it. I have had a Macbook Pro for about 4 years now and haven't had any virus problems, ever. It runs smoothly, quickly and doesn't ever freeze. A regular Macbook laptop or iMac computer is all the average blogger needs, unless you are doing heavy video editing for podcasts, in which case you might want to invest in a Macbook Pro or a Mac Pro for their processing speed. Best of luck with your computer purchases!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12022753471254796721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2387813811203789547.post-24663139377230814832011-01-31T21:36:54.276-06:002011-01-31T21:36:54.276-06:00Oh no, I am so sorry about your computer...hope it...Oh no, I am so sorry about your computer...hope it works out OK!

I have an external backup but that sometimes cause heartache as it seems to double some files and photos...not sure why?<br /><br />My daughter has a Mac and loves it but it has not been problem free as she had a hard drive problem that was luckily fixed under warranty. A friend who has a mac also had her one year old hard drive crash! So it is not a miracle computer by no means.<br /><br />I love this soup! Anything seafood wins with me. I've wanted to read that book for a long time but can't find it in my local library. I may have to order a copy from Amazon.

Indeed a caress and the best medicine. Love it - regardless of the weather. I also love my Mac. I got one a little over a year ago and never looked back! It's not just the viruses that it doesn't get (or almost doesn't get), it's other things that you learn to live with in a PC that you really shouldn't have to: popup dialogue boxes giving you information about something that may have happened somewhere but you can't to anything about, and it getting slower the fuller it gets. The Mac doesn't slow down, or at least, not in any way that anyone short of a Shaolin monk would notice. It's awesome. Plus, as with everything that Steve Jobs puts his company's name to, it is so incredibly COOL. Can't put a price on coolness!Vibey @ Yumbo McGillicuttyhttp://yumbomcgillicutty.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2387813811203789547.post-50207423199996003932011-01-30T00:32:21.863-06:002011-01-30T00:32:21.863-06:00Lovely soup!
