Love At First Sight


Apple calls this Beauty with Brains. I don't think words can describe the impression one gets when they see this phenomenon for the first time. I was strolling back down to the carpark from the cinema at the Mutiara Damansara Cineplex when fate (in the form of a security guard who closed one of the escalators) led a frustrated me to an otherwise secluded Apple Store. There, sitting forlonely, in all its cutting edge glory... the new IMac.

Did you see that keyboard? Did you? Oh Gawd! I've died and gone to heaven! Go ahead. I dare you not to look twice.

Hey, can't you hear the call?

"Take me home... take me home... you know you want me..."

Well, it IS the Chinese Halloween month you know..:-P

Yeah, Apple is the looker. Damn, can't Dell do something???

Thank you for visiting my blog and your comments. I haven't the time to mess with iMac yet. Looks interesting. Aiya, where is your bookmark for me to stumble and review your post?

Helen: I heeded the call d. Ordered a mid-range one. Me have no resistance whatsoever.

Vincent: I was fiddling with the IMac in that shop and the internet connection was top notch. I just wonder whether its all the computer or is it also the line?

Twisted heels: Sometimes, first impression is all it takes.

Jesie: I think I'll need to go over to your blog and find out what "stumble" is.

Ei...this is definitely cool man! Too bad my company provided me with a brand new IBM Thinkpad X60, so I dont think I'll need another IMac at home lor...But u'r right, the keyboard is just DEM "chun"...

To be honest, I'm a Mac lover and this piece is cool.. But the slack part of Mac is that you can't upgrade the machine though.. I mean, with the technology moving in the fast pace, what's new now might be obselete few months down the road.. But for now, this machine is da man..

Sharlydia: Wait till you try typing on it.

McMercedez: Well, I'm kinda reasoning that if my little Compaq Armada M300 could last me 5 long years, the Apple should too. Actually, I don't really care. For this, I'm acting on impulse.

Maybe the Safari web browser, but I don't think it's much faster than IE or Firefox. Hmm, most probably it was the connection.

The Safari web browser looks cool huh. :)

Hi, Vincent. I was told Safari works way faster than even Firefox.
