now i have a laptop.
steven and mummy and hubert and i went to the IT fair. It was so crowded that hubert almost got squashed flat. We went to get mummy a new laptop for her new office. Then we went to get mine.
while bargaining, we realised that if we paid for the laptop by credit card, an extra 3% would be charged. (retailers are not supposed to do this but they do so anyway) Mummy's nets card was almost maxed out for the day. so steven dug out all the cash in his wallet, mummy dug out all the cash in hers and i dug out all the cash in mine. we looked so poor thing, one family standing there pooling all our available cash. luckily we managed to pool together enough cash to pay for half the total price which meant we didn't have to pay extra 3% for the half paid by card.
So now i have this powerbook which i don't really know how to use yet. mac is so different from windows. windows is said to be clunky and unstable but it's something most people grow up with.
