iMac is coming

I'm switching from pc to mac this weekend. Heaven help me! I figure it this way: my pc is over 3 years old and that's about how long they last the way I beat them up, so if I have to learn something new (like Vista) I might as well learn the mac.

I haven't had the best luck with computers lately after the major email problems I had when Outlook Express took a dump, so I am hopeful this will go easier. I have a mac specialist coming out this weekend to move all my data and get me all set up. I hope there is time for tutorial as well, but if not I'll have to learn it on my own---just like the pc.

When I moved out here in June '92 I had my memory typewriter. Yep. I had to be dragged kicking and screaming to the pc. Seriously. When the old company shipped my new Dell it sat in boxes for a week or so. I finally unpacked it and set it up. Easy. Turned it on and turned it back off. Finally I had a quick lesson in Word and voila! From that day forward I put the typewriter in the closet. So I guess I can manage to learn the iMac. How hard could it be?

We'll find out!

She's coming at 1pm to start data transfer after setting it up. Then back Sunday to finish in case it takes awhile to transfer.

I will most definitely need my geeky brother by Sunday!

See you tomorrow! Your room is ready!!
