2. My first computer (freshman year of college) was a giant tank - the Apple G3 all-in-one
3. I haven't had a working printer in years.
4. I like Macs but I really love being able to right click on a mouse (and yes, I know there are ways around that)
5. I didn't have an email address until my freshman year of college.
6. I used to be very good at Snood. Sadly I haven't played in a while.
7. I took a semester long keyboarding class in 7th grade. I would say it's the most useful class I've ever taken, hands down.
8. I want an iPad but I can't justify purchasing one.
9. I know most people's jobs would be different without computers, but mine would change significantly. I'm very happy I don't have to maintain a card catalog!
10. I did all my college applications on a typewriter. Who even owns a typewriter now?

OMG Snood!!! I think my parents still play it when they are bored.
A typewriter! wow.. I'm glad you have a new shiny lap top now :)
I took a keyboarding class in 7th grade too and it's proven extremely valuable. An iPad is totally worth it. I use mine every day-- more than my regular computer:
- Wake up to iPad Alarm
- Use Clock app on iPad for Planks
- Use iPod on iPad for music getting dressed in the morning
- Come home, relax by playing chess on iPad against friends
- Relax some more by reading Twitter.
- Listen to iPod music on iPad while husband cooks dinner
- While settling into bed, read blogs on iPad
- Occassionally watch movie in bed on iPad.
So, if you want one, it has a ton of uses. It's great for road trips, plane rides, doctor's office waiting rooms.
Anyway, your post certainly reminds me on how far we have come with technology!!!
Omg I loved snood! Haven't thought about that game in a looooong time.
Congrats on the computer!
haha, this is awesome! I love your all-in-one computer - totally cool - but your new laptop is way cooler :)
I have a mac and I REALLY miss the right click!
