Computer Clean Up...Old Photos...E Unmasked

I was almost finished deleting and condensing files when I came across these photos of my maternal grandfather. He was the adventurous type, taking a job three thousand miles outside his home country in a part of the world he had never before set eyes on. He and my grandmother raised three children and were there for almost all of their working lives. I came along during their mid-lives when they still had teens underfoot. The photo below was taken later, about 1961-62, when "cat" specs were all the rage.

New iMac...

I was able to go to Best Buy today. Initially, I intended only to speak with a sales associate regarding Macs and HP's. When all was said and done, however, I found a new iMac for the same price as the re-furbished Mac I had seen online from the Apple store. For better or worse, the deal is done. I will go with a friend on Friday to pick it up. I am looking forward to the wonderful resolution on the 27-inch screen.

My thanks to those of you who have made recommendations, wished me luck in my search, and listened to my pros and cons. I am especially grateful to Barbara from http://looking2live.blogspot.com for putting me in touch with her husband. He is both an Apple devotee and extremely computer literate.

There may be a bit of re-learning involved in this migration for me; I am looking forward to that.

Until Next Time...
