newest laptop models

Did you watch the news last night???

If you didn't you missed seeing the newest Apple Macbook Air being unveiled to the market. It says that it's ultra-portable, ultra-lightweight... ultra expensive too! hehehe

It's one of the two things I am eyeing at the moment, the other being the SONY VAIO FZ...

sooo gorgeous! But as I have told my hubby, it's one of those "nice-to-haves" that we can really do without.

Right now, my Compaq Presario 2200 may seem to be out-dated in terms of portability (its more than 2 kls. noh) and usage (don't know what happened to my once super-heavy duty DVD burner)...but then again, it serves the purpose of being able to connect to the net & keep my blogs updated, have my little boy's pictures uploaded into several websites I have maintained. It's serving it's purpose! And who needs another one? Of course, if money is not a hindrance, who doesn't like all the fine things in life? But we do have moments wherein we have to be "practical" about our expenditures.

And having a baby (actually a big baby now) to take care of is such a big eye-opener in terms of our spending habit. I have to curb my usual mall-rat ways...It's easier not to shop if you don't go out in malls often. It saves on gas...saves on meals & of course unnecessary purchases. But I do have to find ways of avoiding the uber-cutie outfits being sold online. When it comes to my tiny tike, I always splurge...Nevermind if this would mean mommy herself won't be getting the newest "cool" gadget there is.

Ahhh, motherhood!!! It really does change everyone, including me...
