No, that's not just you. I shouldn't even type this on my home computer (an Alienware, which I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE), but I do indeed lust after a MacBook Air.

There. I've said it.

I got a new MacBook Air less than two weeks ago. It has put my first generation iPad very nearly out of business. (I have continued to read books, browse and play the occasional game on the iPad, while in my comfy chair at home, but it's the MacBook Air that has been traveling with me every day.)

My pressing tech needs are simple. I need new batteries for my watch.

Right now, I rely on my phone, which is silly.

Every time someone asks me the time, I have to stick my hand in my pants and pull it out to tell them.

I suppose, like many people these days, I could just walk around with it in my hand all the time, staring at it and poking it.

That would be less shocking.

He did that on purpose.

Oh I agree. Definite quote bating, which is why I referred it to Kevy rather than quoting it myself. He's got a real blind spot for that. He just can't help himself.

I started wearing a wristwatch after a few years of digging my phone out instead, and every time I need to know the time, I simply glance at my wrist. Such amazing technology. Talk about a killer app!

Haha, I started wearing a watch again, too, a few weeks ago. I'm still forgetting to look at it for the time. I have my phone out of my pocket before I realize, d'oh!
