One bourbon, one scotch, and one mav

As many of you know my venerable portable Snow Crash is almost two. Now, it works great, and under normal circumstances I would not have replaced it anytime soon.

These are not ordinary circumstances.
MacBook Pro - Core 2 Duo. 2.33GHz. 2GB RAM. 160GB SATA HD. Dual-layer DVD burner. Integrated iSight. Front Row. X1600. Backlit keyboard. (Still the coolest goddamn feature ever.) All in a svelte 15″ package that weighs 5.5 lbs. And it will be here next week.

It will be the fastest computer I own. It will also be the smallest computer I own.

Life is good.
