2008, meet 2013

Speaking of countdowns (of course I'm writing not speaking but hey, it's my blog so I can say that), I've been watching, tracking and waiting for this to arrive too.It's been a nice distraction from thinking about the halo.

My new Macbook Pro, with the old one underneath

My original Macbook started giving me problems last year and failed on me earlier this year so I had to replace it. I intend to see if the old one can be repaired but I know I need one I can rely on for my travels so I got a replacement.

It's a 15" MB Pro with retina display and fully loaded. A big improvement over the 5 year old version while still retaining some of the best features. And as I usually do, it's a clean rebuild rather than transferring all the old stuff so I have some work ahead of me over the weekend. Something to help me pass the time :)

Here was the countdown to today on this front, one slight detour due to weather.
