Procrastination

All I can say is thank god for procrastination. I didn't order that new mac yet even though I should have like a week ago!

Apple just came out with new models. For the same price I will get twice the ram and a new better processor. The old ones were intel core duo, the new ones are intel core 2 duo. They are about 50% then the other.

Tommy is happy. Time to order it now.

For those of you interested:

As it stands I will not have the best vid card of everybody here. Don't get me wrong, it's a decent card, just not the best. But most likely I will for awhile anyway have the best processor in town.
