i don't see myself buying anything new in the near future, but if something fails, probably. i think owning 9 computers (6 being mine, 3 being my husband's -- yes, i beat him!) is enough. :)

My next big PC purchase will be this.

But not for a few weeks yet, I need to buy a new cell phone (mine died), a futon, and pay off a collections agency =(

Not for some time yet tho, my current rig is still blasting stuff as it is, and the switch to something like that aint cheap.

2GB of PC2700 SODIMMs...for the new powerbook 15".

Unfortunately, that probably won't happen for six months.
