40 before 40 - My new macbook pro

Soooooo, I think I've mention here that my 4.5 year old macbook died on me back in mid-July. I was without a real laptop until the end of August when I bought this baby. Ugh, this was the most expensive thing I have ever purchased in my life!! Apple, seriously, this Pro better survive for more than five years or else I'm going back to PCs.... heh, I'm so kidding. I love Macbooks. I can't see myself using a PC again.

I'm such a gadget girl. I really would like to own an iPad, but I'm not in love with the weight; it's pretty heavy. Rumors say that a mini may come out sometime next year. If so, then I'll be on it! It would be nice to have a small tablet while traveling to surf the web or read a book/magazine. Even more useful for my commute to and from work!

new camera

Since July of this year,  I have been without a camera; I've been relying on my iPhone 4 for my picture taking and to be honest, the phone takes pretty good pictures. I still wanted to get my hands on an actual camera though and I've spent quite a bit of time on my decision.  The last two cameras that I owed were both Canon, so I'm pretty loyal to the brand. After using point & shoots for five years, I finally wanted to dive into the world of DSLRs.
