I bought a MacBook Pro and an Acer PC today!

Feeling rather broke now… I just bought a MacBook Pro for myself at the Comex fair at Suntec. I took the 15 inch one with a 4GB ram upgrade and extended Apple Care Protection. Damage to my wallet = S$3287. I also boughta desktop PC from Acer for S$548 for my dad’s use. I think the latter is quite a steal – cheap and good.

Total damage = S$3835 (heartache!)

Nonetheless, the upgrades were necessary. Both the desktop PC and my eMac were down, as mentioned in a previous blog entry. I had the PC for almost 7 years, and the eMac for almost 5 years.
