After teaching summer computer camp this year I had a little money to spend. I also had a computer that desperately needed updating. I have been waiting to purchase a Macbook Pro for a while and this was the perfect opportunity to do so. Did I spend more money than I should have, of course. Was my wife happy, not really. I am happy to say that she is talking to me again. I was a little worried for a while. I was able to get what I wanted for a significant discount as I really did my research before I bought.
