MacBook Pro – Too Much To Ask For?

I was talking to a friend about something I want last night. It is a large expense and one I would not normally lavish upon myself when I can so easily think of other things I need to spend my money on first. A fence for the backyard, a new car for my mother-in-law, an iMac for the family, things the kids need and so on and so forth… But I really want a MacBook Pro.

There, I said it: I want a MacBook Pro.

How would I use this laptop? Umm, I would blog on it, I would be the bestest photo guy, always updating my Picasa, I would write my books that would make millions and then I would do homework with the kids on it in their rooms.

I am pretty sure the laptop would help me become enlightened too… I really think so. I could learn all about the Buddha and his teachings, I would study and then even write some sites devoted to offering those same teachings to others.

I know, I know; this all sounds very precocious and trite: but let’s look at some other items that would be great while we are on this subject. I could handle an iPhone, and iPodTouch. (I don’t think I really need the iPod if I get the iPhone, but might as well put it out there right?) I have a great little pocket camera already, but I need a sweet DSLR to get some action pics of my kids and their sports…

I know I will feel guilty about this as soon as I post it; but there it is.
