Which never speaks its name
I’ve had a fairly long and storied unrequited love affair with Apple. Here’s a brief chronology:
- Fall 2003: iTunes comes out for Windows, I download
- Fall 2003: Man I want an iPod
- New Year’s 2003: Acquire an eMac, ditch Windows
- Summer 2005: Finally get my damn iPod
- Fall 2005: After never getting a printer to work (and wanting a Media Center), buy new PC
- Christmas 2005: Buy Elizabeth an iPod for the hell of it
- Winter 2006: Disconnect my iPod when the screen said ‘Do not disconnect’ in flashing red letters. Apparently they meant it. (AppleCare replaces it)
- Fall 2006: iPod mysteriously breaks again, Apple doesn’t repair because I closed a car door on it and they think that’s the problem
- Fall 2006: Get a crappy 512 mb player, hate it, eventually steal Elizabeth’s iPod
- Spring 2007: Buy a Macbook, increasingly use it more than the PC
- Spring 2008: Elizabeth’s iPod develops an issue with the headphone jack, plays with skips or static
- Yesterday: Buy a 1 gig iPod Shuffle
- Next year: Buy an iPhone, experience Nirvana
