Hey Guys!
I am soooo excited to share with you my new purchase: MacBook Pro 15"! The first week of January, Future Shop was still having Boxing Week sales and I have been in the market for a new laptop, particularly I had my eyes set on either the 13" or the 15" MacBook Pro. I ended up going with the 15" because the 13" was a bit too small for me, and the 15" had the AMD Radeon HD graphics processor. Initially I was going to go to Apple to pick up my laptop, but Future Shop had $100 off the computer I was looking to purchase, so I decided to pick it up from there instead. I never see sales of MAC computers, so I jumped at the chance to save some money. Needless to say, I've been living on this computer for the past couple weeks. I was a PC user all my life and I must say, I will NEVER go back to PC again after using my MAC! The first day or two I was a bit rusty at navigating the desktop, but after a little bit of play-time, I am getting quite proficient at the layout. This is definitely one of the best investments I have made. I actually stopped buying my typical makeup and clothes purchases just so that I could save up for this bad boy. I'm quite proud of myself that I had a goal and stuck to it. Here are some photos of the laptop:
15-inch: 2.2 GHz
2.2GHz quad-core Intel Core i7
4GB 1333MHz
500GB 5400-rpm
Intel HD Graphics 3000

Price: $1849.00
(with the $100 off, plus tax, it was just shy of $2000)
