I kicked the habit, kicked the habit, kicked the habit.

So, dear readers, I am writing to you from my brand spankin' new Apple Powerbook G4 (one of the older versions, but super-sweet nonetheless). It has wireless internet, it has an 'o' key, it's not necessary to keep it plugged in at all times, and it's held together with nice, reliable metal screws. I've transferred all of my files, and I'm rockin' and rollin' like never before.

Turns out that the sense in which I could afford this machine was plenty substantial enough for me! WOOHOO!
