New Mac :)

I have wanted a Mac for years. Finally I am getting my wish. Tomorrow my new Mac Mini arrives ready for me to have new adventures on. I intend to use it for music and video production and to store my music and photo collection. We will see where that all leads! This thing really is tiny at only 6.5" square but has a 2GHz processor and 4Gb RAM. OSX Leopard and all the bits too. I am looking forward to having some fun :)

Music


Music is one of my other great hobbies. I have a very varied and eclectic taste in music although my favourite band of all time must be Pink Floyd. I guess if I have to choose (and why should I?) I prefer Gilmour to Waters but I guess that is because I am a guitarist. My guitar is pictured here. I play through my computer via an interface by Line6 called GuitarPort. It really is a superb piece of kit and enables me to sound like anyone I choose, even if I cannot play like them :-)
I have played guitar for about 34 years but I had a long period (about 10 years) where I didn't play. I have always played acoustic folk until I got the Ibanez but I am now trying to learn to solo.
