I'm sleeping soundly in my comfy bed this morning around 7:30. I hear a faint noise that sounds like chime. I think to myself, "There can't possibly be anyone at the door." But then I realize that I also hear a truck out front that sounds like a FedEx/UPS/mail truck. It is indeed the doorbell ringing. I yell, "I'm coming," throw on some clothes, disable the alarm and dash downstairs. The Fed Ex guy apologizes for waking me and hands me the thingy to sign, then puts a large box in my foyer. After he leaves, I examine the outside of the plain, unmarked box trying to remember what I might have ordered, but I draw a blank. It is shipped to me, not D, so I open it. And what do I see?
A new 20" iMac! She's a beaut. I just took pictures and was able to upload the photos with NO learning curve at all. Didn't have to install any software or anything. Just plugged it in and, voila!, iPhoto took care of everything for me. Awesome!
I am still having some learning curve given I've never used a Mac in my life, but so far so good. I was disciplined enough to walk the dogs before taking it out of the box, else those poor puppies would get no walk today as I doubt I'll be able to tear myself away from my new toy for very long.Mac packaging is so simple and wonderful. I discovered that with my video iPod and it's definitely true of this sucker. The commercials were right: plug it in and go. So easy.
Awesome Megan--I have the same computer at work and love it--wish I had one at home. Enjoy.
