nicely done Becka!

We just got another stock of those units in today too. They are selling very well. And in the future when you want to upgrade the RAM, you will have an open slot to just slide it in, easy honest.

Well this time tomorrow night I should be a Mac user! The University bookstore should have my computer ready for me to pick up tomorrow afternoon. It is probably none too early either because I think the power supply on this one is going out. I would love to wait until Leopard is released but I just don't think this computer will hold out that long.

Yay Becka!

Now, once you get it, come here and tell everyone how you like it!

Want to know what we did over the weekend?

We saw the Indians lose on Saturday from the Club seats, but WIN yesterday and clinch the division!

It was also kid's day and kids got to run the bases.
It's Tribe Time Now!

Before the game . . .

[/QUOTE]

Face Painting before the game - of course a PINK Chief Wahoo . . .

And we had to go to "Build a Bear" at the ballpark . . .

She named her bear "Champy"

It was a Bright, sunny day . . . Hot in the seats, cool in the shade. I have sunburn!

The view from our seats . . .

My arm, Sophia, Amy's sister, and Amy at our seats

The Fans Standing . . .

The final strike . . .

We are AL Central Champs!

The Pennant is flying!

This is OUR Year!

Walking the bases after the game . . .

In front of the Home Dugout

Playoffs Next!

Sniff - so basically Brack you mean it never gets easier?!

 

[Bella2000]

Since I know you are a numbers person Becka I thought I would share this - I have not tried it yet. Of course this is not platform dependent (Mac or PC) just shoddy software development evidently if it is true. Of course iWork's Numbers program evidently has no issues.

As someone who uses Excel almost everyday that really scares me. I seldom use the number they mentioned but if it can be wrong ANYWHERE that is bad.

 

[becka]

Well no Mac for me tonight. The bookstore ordered the wrong model. They ordered the 24" inch screen and while that would be nice I can't afford that one. They are ordering me a 20" and hopefully they will have it for me tomorrow night.

 

[brack]

Another slow night on the DIS

 

[brack]

It's really too far to make a run by myself ......


.......... or is it?
