A brand new MacBook Pro.

1. Being a "trophy wife" has benefits, yes?

2. Yeah, it does
But my mom bought me the laptop, so the trophy wife benefits really aren't applicable here.

8. Ah, you fail to see the full picture.
Your mom is just happy that "wild child" Haruka has settled down with a grounded, responsible, loving, caring, decent person such as your betrothed. Hence the birthday reward.

3. Congratulations on the new laptop - Now get Undercover!!!
Edited on Fri Feb-20-09 11:47 PM by GoneOffShore
I'm series!!111!!

If you take the laptop out of the house or even if you don't - you need this software! It's LoJack for your Mac.

I've put it on all my laptops.

The only downside is that to make it totally effective, you can't do automatic log in. And you have to have an open guest account. But that's not really a downside.

Check it out.

And it's only for Macs. Sorry PCers'

6. Cool, I didn't know that
And I never do automatic log-in and always set up a guest account, so that's all cool by me.

7. Sushi, sake, and a MacBook Pro tonight
Tomorrow is martini night and Sunday we're going to check out some Irish music at a pub in town.

Life is good.

12. That is a fine, fine weekend.
I think I'm making homemade mozzarella tomorrow. I'm on another make-stuff kick.

13. Homemade mozzerella is awesome
Nothing better than that on a piece of bread with some tomato, basil, balsamic and salt.

11. Nice. I plan to upgrade sometime before the end of the year.
I'm debating whether to get a fully loaded HP with Blu-Ray or to get a new Macbook.

15. I just got a MacBook last month
Not the pro, but the book with the 2.4 gHz processor and the 250GB hard drive. I can't figure out why I put up with Windows all these years.

Late December/early January I watched my son work on grad school applications on his pro. I was really impressed with the speed and design of it. I was sold!
