I made my first PowerBook-related purchases today, as part of the deposit I sent from my last paycheck finally made its way into my bank account.
The first purchase was for something I know I will be using in the next six months, and that is Keynote. I plan on using presentations for just about [...]

Well, now I have a decision to make. Based on available reports, the consumer line of desktop Macs has been end-of-life’d at Apple, which means that product revisions are coming down the pipeline. I’ve been debating the PowerBook purchase for a bit now, because rumors have been spreading of updates to the line [...]

Just received my Missouri refund by direct deposit, but still no federal refund. Uncle Sam is now officially taunting me.
On the other hand, I am going to be purchasing a backpack into which I may safely place my laptop for reasons of transport and safety for such an expensive investment. I’ve settled on [...]

The only problem right now is that I have to wait so darn long to get my federal tax refund. I don’t remember how long it took last year, but I did e-file this year again, and it hopefully won’t take as long as the worst-case estimate.
This wouldn’t be so bad if I could [...]

Yes, it is true.
I will be buying a PowerBook 17 as soon as my tax credit comes in by direct deposit (I only wish it didn’t take as long as it does).
And thanks to the ADC and the fact that I am a full-time student, I will be paying 20% under MSRP, which actually makes [...]

It sure is nice to have a Thursday where I know I have the evening off for a change. Since I already did my Lenten service thing at Wayside yesterday evening, and I helped the guest preacher Wednesday morning, that means I get to take the night off from service - and even from [...]

So tax changes are getting more and more confusing, methinks.
Allow me to illustrate an example for you that has recently come to my attention - something that makes little to no sense but at the same time makes me very excited and happy.
For the tax year of 2003, my wife and I had witheld from [...]

Interestingly, I was at a pastor’s circuit meeting this past week, where we discussed a certain - institution that I once attended (and from which I graduated), which is a place a few people who read this share with me, and so I felt like sharing that information… because it is so interesting to [...]

You know, the more I look at it, the more I find Mac OS X to be what I believe is the most viable platform in the entire universe - and not simply from an end-user standpoint. I’ve been reading up a lot on OS X Server, and I have to say that I’m [...]
