Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Eww, yeah, when it comes down to the flakiness of any given network, I got nothin'. Glad it finally worked for you.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Are these MacBook Pros a new announcement?

Man, I almost wish I was back in the market for a new laptop. But this baby has been very nice to me, nicer than I've been to it.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Yes.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Pretty!

I want a new laptop. Shame mine survived the spill so well.

Actually, it's a good thing it did, or I'd already have a new laptop and be really pissed at that. As things stand, I'm merely envious, but realise that in a few years it will be better and brighter and ready for me to buy.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Ooooh. It might be time for me to retire the 6-year-old iBook...

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I just bought a refurb Mac Mini and a mini wireless keyboard. By this time next week I'll be able to watch Top Chef on my television and use my laptop at the same time. Woo hoo!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Hmmm. My 17" MacBook Pro is less than two years old. And a few weeks ago I bought an 11" MacBook Air, which I totally love, as I can carry it about in its shoulder bag and not even feel the weight. Only 2 1/2 pounds!

So no new MacBook Pro for me for a while.

Bought my MBP in late 2008. No compelling reason for me to upgrade yet.

Oh! I bought a Pioneer BDP-330. Which has youtube access. Which is nice. Except I can't work out how to enter anything other than numbers with the remote, which makes it useless for anything other than browsing. I can't find any explanation on the web for how to do more.

Anyone know?
