Apple iMac

I have been dreaming of having an iMac. One reason is so that the kids can use it to play games and in their research. Another is so that I can use my laptop when I need it. They always seem to ask if they can use it the moment I turn it on. And the last reason might have been just to finally have an Apple. I have been always a PC fan. I wanted to be able to feel how it is to have something different and find out for myself it is really better than a PC. Prices of computers are continously dropping. A couple of months ago an Apple iCore 3 with a 21.5 inch monitor and 4GB of memory is being sold at $1,299 here and $1,199 in the US. Now you can get an iCore 5 for $1,199 here and abroad. I thought that I will finally be able to own one until it had to go to the back burner as we decided to use the money in something that is really important.

All is not lost. All I need to do is be more frugal and save some money for the iMac and hopefully gain support from the Financial Controller (Hahaha!)

Ipod Touch Software Update

My cousin asked me if I had downloaded games to my iPod Touch. I said I did not want to spend money for these games. When I found out that there are a lot of free games. I immediately ran iTunes, went to the apple store site and searched for free games. I think I downloaded 75 percent of all the free games that I knew. I stopped at 75 % because of limited space on my device.

After downloading, I noticed that I can't install the games on the iPod. I found out that I need to upgrade the software to the latest version before I can do it. I finally decided to upgrade for CAD 9.99 and voila, Free games. Although some are just teasers, there are some nice games that one can enjoy when traveling long distances or if you have a lot of time to kill. I believe spending 10 bucks and getting some good games is not bad.
