Fruit from depression and conflicts

Work is not going anywhere, stressed like here, struggling endlessly. Life is full of debt, which needs my entire life to clear up. So, it raised a damn valid question why I would still spend that much money on this damn piece of crap Macbook.


It happened last Sunday, after gym. I was hoping to check out Lenovo A300. It grabbed my attention from a magazine I checked out in the gym a week before that. I hate my office laptop Dell - heavy and slow like hell. And, I need to work in the weekends, but I dislike bringing this heavy laptop home. So, this A300 certainly has raised my interest.

When I was standing in front of this piece of beauty in Fortress, all I kept thinking is the disaster I have encountered before back in Netherlands when I needed to move. Even though it is an all-in-one desktop, yet it is still a big piece of machine. I don't want to have this bulky junk with me all the time. Then, when I turned my head, I saw this piece of crap. It stroke me! I have been using Windows for all my life, and never have I had a chance to really try out Mac. So, after checking the price, and after about 30 minutes of standing there, debating with myself in my mind, I finally took out my credit card and brought this machine home. Do I regret it now? Honestly, I don't. I think, I need something to tell myself, "you have been working hard and you deserve this!"

Luckily, (nearly) all the software I need to work supported by Mac, except Minitab and (perhaps) SPSS. Hopefully I will find a solution to use those on Macbook soon.
