It is the end of an era. And Hank.

So, I am attempting to sell my laptop. Yes. I know. It is sad. I'll no longer see Hank's cheery blue smile when I wake up in the morning. And when I am at work. And when I am back home for lunch. Or when I am watching movies. Or hanging out with friends. Or when I go to sleep at night.

Hank was the first large purchase I ever made. (Unless you count the $80 box of Magic the Gathering cards I bought when I was ten). I wasn't sure if it was a smart decision when I did it. And after I bought him I didn't open him and let him sit in his box for a day just in case I changed my mind. But as it turns out I don't think I have used any one item in my life more than Hank. He was ultra portable, so I took him everywhere. And I loved him.

And now I am saying goodbye. I have posted him to Craigslist. And will shortly post him to ebay.

I'll miss you Hank.

(That is if anyone will buy you. \crosses fingers\).

    I don't have a new computer yet. Because I don't need two. But if I can sell Hank, then I will try and buy a new one.

    Woah, there guys. I will still be getting an Apple laptop. But for websites I need to be able to test in Internet Explorer. Its okay if my website doesn't work in IE, but I plan to make some sites for mass consumption this spring, and thus it would be very helpful if I had IE. Thus, I was only sort of lying.

    So are you getting one of those new mac that can run windows? (New macs can run windows right?)

    Couldn't you buy an old PC like mine for like $100 for running windows and IE?

    I kinda want a new computer now, I got a new camera and it's working pretty hard processing the 10 megapixel images. Doesn't like downloading them either without any USB 2.0 ports.
