Upgraded the Home Computing Operation.

Upgraded the Home Computing Operation.

Well it had to be done. My old iMac was a PowerPc model running 10.4.11 tiger

It lasted 6 years and it was trouble free for the most part. This computer has been moved to the wife’s office.

My New Command Center:

Specs:

Along with a whole bunch of goodies I haven’t figured out yet nor will I probably ever use…

So far I’m extremely happy with this new computer. I have to get used to this tiny keyboard, but I love the mouse/track pad combination. The speed of this thing is incredible and it’s QUIET. 27″ is a lot of viewing area and if you add the additional 15″ Macbook that I’ll be using for website testing and the 13″ PC used for the same thing my office is now a geeks dream….
