A Well-Played Hand
Mac Problems: Planned obsolescence. My hand-me-down laptop was already too old for Catalina, let alone Big Sur. It's still running High Sierra. 🐢
Novelist Problems: I'm in the middle of round one edits and Word keeps crashing. Presumably because of said OSX issues. 😱
Mom Problems: I have an iMac that I use for graphic design work (also too old to upgrade to Big Sur), but I can't use it because my fifteen-month-old climbs furniture (bye-bye, desk), whacks the keyboard, and pulls the cord out of the back of the computer. 😱
COVID Problems: I have no place to move the desk. Everyone's working and schooling from home. Seven people in a lovely but modest-sized home? We've run out of space.
But...
Though I was hoping to hold off on a new computer for a few more years, I knew this business purchase needed to happen. And we have savings.
You win, Apple. Take my money.
