New iMac!

So I’ve been meaning to share this update for a while. Because I got the community advisor position on the dorms next year and would be saving a lot of money that would go to loans I decided to treat myself to a beauuutiful new computer.

old set up

Here’s my old set up. My iMac was really good but when it came to running Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign especially at the same time it just couldn’t deliver any more. I got it January of 2005 so it had a good run.

unboxing

So here’s my new beauty fresh out of the box. Its a brand new 24” iMac with 1TB of memory, 4 gigs of RAM, 512MB of video RAM, 3.06 GHZ Intel Core 2 Duo processor. You can really see the size difference between the 24” and 17” iMacs. Amazing.

And here’s my new lovely set up that I have today.

I never thought my 22” LCD could look so small and dull but the screen of my 24” is just amazing.

This new set up is really going to help my productivity and efficiency. Haven’t really had to wait for anything yet which is great. Basically I’m in love.
