    Thanks GRC. Every time my laptop freezes on me or is being particularly slow it always spurs me on.

    I'm getting an iPhone in August. My mum's contract is due for an upgrade so will be getting one as part of that. Can't wait :D.

    Thank you :D. I have wanted one for ages.

    I was saving for a Macbook Pro, but a Macbook Air is cheaper. Think I'm going to have to drool over them in PC World during the week and see which one I prefer :).

    Morning :)

    Just redeemed for another £5 voucher :j.

    I'm going to PC World tonight with OH to see which Macbook I want to get. Still might aim for £1,200 even if it's cheaper though, so I can get some software for it.

    Thanks Beccie :). Yodel just delivered my niece's birthday presents, so at least I won't have to deal with those jokers again.

    We went to PC World last night, and I still can't decide between a Macbook Pro and Air. One thing I did decide though was that I'm okay with a 13ins screen (my current one is 15ins). I think when I get to around the £1k mark, I'll start having a proper look.

    OH did some stuff to my current laptop last night, so it is working a bit faster at the moment.

    He's very doubtful as to my ability to get enough Amazon vouchers for a free Macbook. Silly man - doesn't he know that will encourage me even more? ;)

    Well, you'd think he would! Mind you, that was only £200 - not that I'm doubting myself obviously. :)
