It’s Here! It’s Here!

About a month ago, I was figuring out what desktop PC to get for work. I have a laptop that I'm not too happy with and I wanted a little more horsepower. And a bigger screen. And a bigger hard drive. And a real video card. Other than those things, I was perfectly happy with my laptop.

I'd also been looking for an excuse to buy a 24" iMac for about a year - the spot in our kitchen back in VA was about a half inch too short to accommodate it (doh!), so I was stuck getting a 20" one. I have a space now, but the 20" one survived the move and so I couldn't really justify buying another.

So I figured - make it my work machine! Why not find out if the corporate buying process at Microsoft can handle it? I figured it was possible since we have a Mac team. Sure enough, the corporate process handled it, and it just showed up late yesterday afternoon. Whaaa-freaking-hoooooooo! It's fully tricked out, too:

  • 2.33GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
  • 2GB 667 DDR2 SDRAM
  • 750GB Serial ATA Drive
  • NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GT 256MB SDRAM

I have meetings, meetings and more meetings today, so I can't do any with it until tonight - bummer!
