Penny wishes to extend welcoming thoughts to your new computer and wootness for a Mac!TARDIS. (Because I have a theory that computers are baby TARDISes that don't have dematerialisation properties yet. Think about it—computers, laptop or otherwise, can take you pretty much anywhere in time and space. And "welcoming thoughts" because, well, semi-sentient time-and-spaceships designed by a highly advanced civilisation are probably telepathic, yes?)
She's a 13in white MacBook with this case in plum (and now I see they have TARDIS blue—but only for the aluminum MacBooks). I've seen a few patterns for felted laptop bags on Ravelry and am considering making one for extra protection since the snap-on case pretty much just protects against scratches—and my messenger bag has nothing in the way of padding. So far I haven't had any troubles carrying her in my bag, but . . . just in case.
When you say come up with a name for the computer, do you know how to change the name when you log on? Mine says "Michelle's MacBook," but I don't know if it's actually possible to change it (like how you can name your iPod so that it shows up with a name when connected). If so, I really want to.
How's iLife? The only software I got with mine was Office for Mac—mostly because I was using a Grad Plus loan to get my laptop and it's accompanying fun stuffs and didn't want to take out *too* big of a loan.
It's so pretty! I really need a Mac!love icon. ^_^ (And here's an Unshelved strip on the subject.)
