You clearly just don't know how to handle Keith.
He may seem complicated on the outside, but his needs are simple.
After all, he may be pretty, but he's still a man.
Heh good job then that I'm not shopping for a keith - er Mac..... McKieth?
But I thought all macs were like iTunes

Sound like Keith needs to be swapped for a model that will deliver bacon

Not true!

Saw a poster one time with two pigs humping, captioned "Making Bacon".

Em...step SLOWLY away from the caffeine...or else, at least give ME some more coffee too, so I can keep up with all that! 
Congrats on the new equipment; always fun to get the bright, new, shiny stuff!!
I'm unusual--I really don't have a strong preference one way or the other for Macs versus Windows. I've been using both since back in the late 80s when we used Macs at the publishing company I worked for and I suddenly, inexplicably found myself "in charge" of troubleshooting software problems on the Macs for the editorial department.
Currently, I have a PC and a Mac at work. I'd been working with a G3 at work for years (we'd bought it NEW long before I even worked there). Last year, the poor thing finally gave out. Actually, that's not true--it's just that the keyboard broke AND I couldn't install our Adobe software on it (which we'd already had over a year at that point) because it was too old to upgrade to the required OS.
Working for a governmental non-profit as I do, I figured there was NO WAY they were gonna let me get anything decent. I was afraid they might not even let me replace it at all, since I do have the (crappy) PC.
So, when I made my request, I asked for pretty much the best iMac available--27" display, 3.4 GHz, 16gb ram, 3 TB drive, etc. I figured that way, maybe I'd at least end up with something a LITTLE better than the lowest-end model possible.
To my surprise, they just said, "Okay, we happen to have some left over grant money that would work for, so go ahead and order it..."
After I came to, I RAN to the Apple Store and got my order in!!! And yeah...I LOVE IT. But I love the huge monitor as much as the computer itself.
Up until last year, I also had a Macbook, a Windows laptop and a PC at home. All the editing/graphic stuff was on the Mac, the rest on the computers. But the Macbook kinda died (sometimes it turns on and works, but it may work for 30 minutes, or 2 hours before it will suddenly die again), and the PC was ancient. So I upgraded to a better PC and no longer have a Mac product at home. Unfortunately, my Toshiba died at the hands of my son last week, so now I gotta figure out what to do about a laptop again...
My biggest problem with PCs...Windows. ESPECIALLY Windows 8. OHMY, how I loathe this new Windows!!!! I hate it so, so much. But I just don't have the time or energy to deal with the alternate choices in OS for PCs.
My biggest problem with Apple. The "shiny" tax. I'd buy Apple products a LOT more if they didn't want to charge four times what they are actually worth just because they're "shiny" and have that cute little Apple on them. If I could buy a new Apple laptop for the same price as a new basic PC, I'd be all over it...but I just refuse to pay the "shiny" tax.

I don't know WHY that made me think of this...two pigs, I suppose.
One of my favorite songs ever. :lmao:
By the way, I have NO CLUE why on earth the video is some big machine shoveling snow...it has nothing to do with the song. Whoever put this video with this particular Bryan Bowers song was just messed up!

The only thing wrong with a Windows PC is that it comes with Windows installed on it. :mrgreen:

(Did I make that analogy work? I mean that's the best I could do man... it was pretty weak to begin with.
Sorry, somebody mentioned bacon and I sort of went off to my happy place there and missed it. Lol

However the rest of that list sounds to me like you have no idea how to use a Mac. Or Keith.
Ok, imagining Overread using mac seems a little strange. Imagining him using Keith shot right to the top of my "mental images that will scar me for life" list.. lol

Congrats, Em!
Anything that makes you this happy has gotta be worth it (though I've personally resisted Apple products at every turn). So you keep right on doing your happy dance, girl!
