new employment, new hardware

A week from today I start a new position as a designer for RightLine Industries. I am excited. my last day at Apple is this Friday. As coincidence has it, System Kid is playing at the Apple Store the same day.

So what did I do today? Ordered a new MacBook to replace my current 12"/1GHz iBook. I ordered the white model with an 80GB hard drive. It is a huge improvement over my current laptop. It will be my first Intel based Mac.

To compare:








iBook MacBook
Screen Size 12"13.3" widescreen
Processor single 1 GHzdual core 2 GHz
Optical Drive combo drivesuper drive
RAM 768MB2GB
Hard Drive 30 GB ATA80 GB SATA
Video RAM 32 MB64 MB shared


I'm sure there's other stuff, like the remote control and Front Row software, but these are the main differences.

I also ordered an iPod nano to go in the new truck. It should be a nice addition.
