Okay, so Tuesday came and went, and Apple launched new MacBooks and MacBook Pros. I feel good about selling my machine, but I don't think I'll be getting a new one any time soon. Gots no money for that.
I wonder if that's why everyone who inquired about buying my Airport Base Station and wireless cards has been slow about getting back to me. Who knows.
I do miss using OS X, and my bluetooth mouse is kind of just sitting around, but I'll rectify those issues soon. I kind of gave up on running OS X on PC hardware, if I wanted to cripple my machine, I could just run Linux on the desktop. Sigh.
At least the 17-inch MacBook Pro might be available more cheaply in the used category soon. I'm pretty sure that's where I'm going to aim with my next notebook.
Until then, I've got a 1 GHz Duron Compaq laptop with 512 MB of RAM. It works. I can't really ask for much more than that.

I've got an old Apple Pismo laptop, G3 500Mhz with a GB of RAM and a old IBM T23 with XP and SliTaz Live CD (Linux). Honestly, I can't really think of any reason why I'd want more than that. They both have internal wi-fi and I have never really been high on trying to replace a desktop with a laptop...just doesn't ever feel right:)
Wi-fi, web...what else would you ever need for a mobile solution? Granted, neither of the ones I got have a usable battery, so I'm always connected to an outlet...but that's the only downside.
