Comment on "Choosing When to Upgrade Hardware"
by Chuck — Apr 05
Interesting article with a lot of good points — and the absolute best use of Princess Bride I've seen in a while! That completely sums up a lot of folks' attitude towards buying.

The part of the equation a lot of people seem to miss, though, is that many of us really don't have the resources to make a bad purchase on a multi-thousand-dollar machine. If the Mac Pro now is perfect except it's missing two features, and then they release a new model with those two new features a month down the road, you're going to be without those features for years before you have another $3000 to blow — rather than just the one month you would have been without them if you'd waited. (And even that's OK if you're a glass-half-full sort, but some people aren't.)
