New Mac
We bought a new Mac, since Andrew is leaving his job — we had bought the current one through his work’s computer buying benefit. Rather than buying off the old one, we decided that we could get more computer for the same price if we bought new. The new one is a dual 1.25 GHz G4 processors with a 120 Gb hard drive. (No, that’s actually not excessive. If this was just a regular home computer, maybe, but I’m working on my thesis at home, and the data takes up a lot of room. In fact, I filled my 50 Gb partition on the old Mac before writing out 20 Gb worth of CDs.)
We spent much of the day copying stuff from the old one to the new one. Now I just need to get Fink and lheasoft (thesis stuff) going….
