New To Me Mac

During lunch I ran to Rivergate to pic up my new to me laptop. Thank you tax refund. I've been praying about how I could get a new machine. Our tax return was nice so Jeff set some money aside for me to buy new software. I ended up getting this laptop. I have been using my employer's 17" MacBook Pro for several years now. I am so grateful I was able to use it. It's helped out greatly. They are going to need it back since I'm only working part time...so that left me with no machine. I had a 12" PowerBook...old school. It's not powerful enough to run the Creative Suite software I use. Plus, Court kinda broke the plug on it. It won't charge anymore. I saw on Facebook that one of my friends was selling his laptop to upgrade. I met him and his wife today to take a look at it and buy it. It's like new and loaded so great for me and a great price.
