i was in a dilemma, whether I should get a netbook, an ultrabook, tablet, or a macbook Air.
My Top priority, would be portability.
Tablet - very portable, even has docked keyboard and usb port (will not get 1 without usb port!), but i guess, limited functions. Price wise affordable ($800ish)
netbook - very portable, can do basic stuff .. very cheap ($300ish), crappy specs though.. well pretty much if i want something immediately for a cheap price i would go for this, but can i bear with ugly screen (compared to other questions), that is another thing to think about.
ultrabook - portable (11inch), better specs among all, more pricy compared to the ones above ($1k-1.5k)
macbook air - portable (11inch), specs similar to an ultrabook, IT IS A MAC, less issues with antivirus, not windows, very expensive ($1k-2k or 3k.. knowing myself i will pump it up to nearly $3k)
leaning towards ultrabook and macbook air, since my current laptop is pretty much dying.
no netbook, no tablet!
hence, new goal has been set - fund for my new toy!
right after i set this goal, i received texts to ask me to work some shifts, i was reluctant to work initially (as i have been busy enough and hence will be tired), but when the macbook air comes into mind, i agreed without thinking much further =)... made my decisions making easier! hehe $400 extra into my piggy by the end of this week!
was asked if i wanted to work too today when i was in the shop, but... instead of taking that 12 hours shift (easily $300ish !!!!!!!) , i spend $100 on body massage and lunch.... $$$$$$$.. money oh money!! but, it was a good massage and good day not working =).. i guess i need to give myself some time off at times
funding timeframe indefinite, but will most probably get it before I leave Australia to go to anywhere overseas. That way i can claim back $200ish GST. Good thing that I am still a Malaysian/tourist xD
