More on Apple

We tried looking for Apple computers when we were in Pensacola, but there were none to be found. I thought that Best Buy sold them, but it turns out that I was actually thinking of CompUSA instead. The nearest CompUSA store from my mom's house is in Tallahassee, so that was a no-go.

After some discussion, she decided she would be happy just having me order it for her. Looks like I'll end up ordering the iBook I mentioned in my previous post sometime after the first of the year. She's going to end up getting broadband with Cox Cable, and I'll hook her up sometime with an AirPort Express sometime in Jan./Feb. so she has wireless.

I think it will be fun to compare the setup experience vs. Windows XP or Ubuntu. It's not clear to me whether Mac has as big an advantage in user friendliness as they once did, but I'm eager to see.
