Apple Anonymous

Hello. My name is Tom and I'm an Appleholic.

Seriously. Since there's so many of us that are Apple fans, I thought we might like to have our own "home" thread to where we can talk Apple stuff. Product reviews, questions, help, or just conversation.

So, go ahead. Join in if you'd like. If it works out and everybody likes it, we'll keep it and maybe sticky it. If, on the other hand, you'd rather keep everything as discrete threads, that's ok too. Just let me know.

Tom (... maybe I need to make us name badges? )

i think that's a good idea so we don't bore the non apple enthusiasts to death with lots of threads!

Hi Tom.......

Now all I need is a 12 step program.

Hi Dan!

Don't think even a 12 step program would work for me.
After all, one of my biggest goals is to someday attend the "Big Nerd Ranch" so I'm probably hopeless.

Tom (... wheee... yet another way to spend money!)

I'm not I could give it up anytime I want! I could! honest! I

ok I'm Keith and I'm an Appleholic

current inventory
2* mac pros
2* 27" imacs
2* macbook airs 13" (different generations)
2* macbook pro 15s (different generations)

ipad1,2 and 3

every ipod revision theyve made
every iphone revision they've made

apple tv on every tv in the house

This doesn't include the ones I've given away to family members etc.

I'm now eagerly awaiting the 15" macbook pro-air (whatever it's going to be called)

I've done the wait outside the apple store for hours in a queue for the latest gadget thing, I've spent all night trying to order online from the apple store and I've longed to attend a WWDConference ;( though that never looks likely to happen (Tom, if you or I win the lottery, I'm up for a pact that we'll meet there that very year ;-)

Wanna adopt me?

Done, done, done, and done!
What about the Big Nerd Ranch? Aaron's a really nice guy. We goin' there too?

Tom (... after all, it's right here in my local area. )

It'd be rude not to! (didnt realise it was close to you Tom! VERY surprised you've resisted that one

In my Profession you'd probably be called a hoarder

Actually, the only reason I haven't is strictly one of cost. Even though it's in the local area, you really need to go stay there to get the full learning impact. And while it's not overwhelmingly expensive, it isn't cheap either. And my DW has other plans for that money. However, I haven't given up. If I can get a few things to work out, I may be able to manage it.

Sooner rather than later hopefully.

Tom (... suscribe to their weblog. Some really interesting bits in there.)

I wan to join!

I only have an iMac, but I am a true convert.

When I can upgrade my phone next year, I'm going for the iPhone.

And well, I'm waiting to see what's offered in June! There could be an iPad or apple laptop in my future.

Oh, and I recently upgraded by older nano to the new 6th generation one.
