Apple Tower

i recently purchased a new machine. and i am geeked out.

but wtf are the specs? you ask?!? let me take you on a tour…

New Apple Tower

a patriotic machine indeed. i decided to name her mia wallace. i would consider writing that in on november 4th.

New Apple Tower

i decided to take out my knife. any reason to take out my knife is a good reason.

New Apple Tower

upon opening the box i was reminded that this product was designed by apple in california.

New Apple Tower

i wonder if made in china seemed less sexy?

New Apple Tower

still in it’s sci-fi cocoon i pulled the 50 pound tower out of the box.

New Apple Tower

obgyn

New Apple Tower

it was ready for some juice. but first, i wanted to inspect the guts.

New Apple Tower

i wish i could fit inside this thing. i would bring a blanket and a 6 pack and just hang out with the two 2.8GHz quad-core intel xeon harpertown processors n shit.

New Apple Tower

i had it shipped with 4GB of ram. it can fit 32GB. and yes, someday i am going to try to max it out. just for the nerd of it.

New Apple Tower

i also had it shipped with 2 1TB drives. i plan on throwing in 2 more here in the next few weeks. if it could fit 10 i would get 10.

New Apple Tower

i opted for the wireless keyboard and decided to later use my bluetooth mouse. i have never liked apples mice. for the love of god, give me a right click button.

New Apple Tower

now all i need is a new monitor and time to actually work on it.

mia will make sure shit goes down.

That is so sexy. I want to lay naked with it.
