Yeah, about me needing a computer in my last post….I’ve got that covered now. I was shocked; my wife surprised the heck out of me with this beauty of a 27″ i-Mac. It wasn’t a Christmas gift though, more of an I’m getting a bonus and wanted something really really nice that I know you want and will surprise you gift. Trust me, I was surprised. I never would have dreamed of getting the 27″ with it’s mind blowing 2560 x 1440 resolution, IPS LED screen, i3 3.2GHz processor, 4gb of ram, built in wi-fi, and 1tb of disk space; it’s a beast. There are faster computers and some that are a little cheaper when configured with a similar IPS monitor, but the i-Mac is a real multimedia feast that’s hard to argue with. Plus the space savings of not having a normal desktop’s tower humming beside you and not having any additional cords other than the one for power are just bonuses. I’m not saying this computer is necessary in any way, but it is a real pleasure to use. I continue to thank my wife every day for getting it for me. A few macro shots taken with a new (to me) macro rig (very similar to the one a few posts back) are below. If you haven’t seen one of these beauties be sure to go to Best Buy or an Apple store to check one out. I have only been using it a few weeks now, but I can already tell it’s going to make a big difference in my editing when compared to our laptop. Really though, how could it not?
