Dear Dell Inspiron 8100,

You were with me for about three years. I remember when I first got you from eBay. You arrived in a case with believe it or not a Viagra trial pack. I am not sure where you were before my care and I am not sure if I am old enough to know. What happens pre-eBay stays pre-eBay.

Although we had our problems (software and hardware conflicts, operating system woes, keyboard issues, slow hard drive, random shutdowns, overheating, broken CD burner, etc.), you served me for three years. But it is now time to move on and I have chosen a new direction. I am defecting from Dell and Microsoft and entering into the world of Mac.

That’s right…my Dell Laptop died (or is at least is in extreme palliative care) so I have been forced to get a new computer and after some research I‘ve chosen to go with a new MacBook. It’s taken some time to transfer things over but I have finally made the switch and although Mac Os X is different then WinXP it seems better – at least it’s cooler. All of that being said…I’m a Mac guy now so I guess I have to buy some trendy cloths and hangout more at StarBucks.

So…goodbye Dell Inspiron 8100 and hello MacBook.
