Day 225 – Addiction

4

225/365 (August 13, 2011) – OK, to qualify, this isn’t ALL mine. In fact, I’m the one who first adopted Mac, and now Kirk officially has more Apple products than I do. I have the early 2008 MacPro desktop, a first gen aluminum MacBook Pro, and an iPhone 3Gs. Kirk has an aluminum 2nd gen MacBook Pro, an iPad 2, iPhone 3Gs, iPod Classic (I sold mine), the first gen iTouch, first gen AppleTV (better than the 2nd gen) and Airport Extreme (OK, so we both have those, but he wanted them so they are essentially his toys). The MacPro tower, the Apple TV and the AirPort Extreme didn’t fit in the space, but they are in behind the scenes too.

Quite the little family we have acquired over the past few years.

I love the fact that the Apple technology seems to outlast other products for so long. Who would have thought I could take an iPod purchased for $250 in 2005 and sell it for $100 (easily) in 2010! I’ve never encountered electronics and computer equipment that holds its value before entering the world of Mac.

The next additions will either be an iPad for me (maybe) of a new 15″ MacBook Pro (more likely). But there is no hurry, all of this stuff, even at 3+ years old for my two machines, is still working without a hiccup.

Have I mentioned how much I love Mac? 🙂
