All Change

I'm not stopping this blog, it's moving to a new format using WordPress.

My new site will eventually also link together all of my other activities on the web so you can just have one starting point.

See you on the other side...

Mac it is....

So after weeks of deliberation... well not quite. I've made a decision and ordered a new iMac. I had looked at Windows PC's but by the time you added in the extra software I would need to purchase and a similar size monitor I would have exceeded the price of the iMac.

So I've ordered a new iMac quad core machine with a 27 inch monitor... yes it's big! But in terms of screen resolution it's only slightly bigger than what I'm using at present but by combining two monitors. Having it all on one screen will be a lot more useful, and I will spend less time glancing left and right all the time!

Delivery date is as yet to be confirmed but some time this month. I will still be retaining my netbook PC for XP and portable use, it works well and it's very compact. My two existing monitors will find use on other PC's and at last I think I will be getting rid of the last two CRT monitors we own.

I'm looking forward to the iMac it will be a new challenge although I'm familiar with the Apple OS, using it full time will be different.

Watch this space.....
