My G3 iBook is finally reaching the end of her usefulness. After 4 good years, the poor girl just doesn’t have what it takes to satisfy me anymore. She’s not fast enough. She overheats too easy. She can’t do the work I need her to do anymore. And, she whines all the time. It’s time to upgrade to the new slim, fast, quiet, smooth, pretty MacBook<\/a>. I’d go with a Pro, but they’re just too expensive for my budget, and besides – I can get the regular MacBook to do what I want just as well, for less money! I’m going to order her online, but I’ll have to get the funds first. Hopefully she’ll be on her way by the end of the week. I can’t wait!<\/p>\n
