I decided I wanted another laptop. When Sui’s elbow jabbed me in the stomach for the umpteenth time while she shrank in the home office chair as I reached around to type in a chat IM window aside her email screen, I figured having two machines around would be helpful, and it’d quiet down my constantly-whirring, energy-sucking beast of a PC periodically.
And after spending some time with Macbooks in the office, well – why not. Macs worked well for development (say, when I’m working from home), I’m growing used to the OSX programs and interface, and the Macbook Pro really has exceptional build quality.
And all I needed was:
- A 13″ Macbook Pro
- A matching laptop stand
- A Mini Display Port to DVI display adapter
- A KVM switch
- An optical audio cable
And I get this crappy iPhone camera pic:
Now all I need is one of my wealthier friends to donate a productivity-busting 30″ screen.
