Happy Happy

O.K., so computer issue part deux. I bought a new MacBook last night and excitedly clicked through the process of setting it up to our wireless service. I got to the end and nothing, and to add to my frustration, some of the icons in the menu bar weren't showing up on my computer (they were a huge part of why I chose it). Today I went back to the Apple store and talked to Don. He is wonderful!! He helped me and now I'm able to tell you all about it on my new shiny laptop! yay!!!! He even got me a break on purchasing the iWork program (the missing icons) and their OnetoOne in store service because I homeschool my son....AWESOME!

THANK YOU DON!!!!!!!!! :D

grrrr.....

O.K., so we got a new computer today (one is quickly becoming not enough for the three of us; how is that exactly??) and it's a MacBook that I CANNOT figure out. We also recently got cable/wireless hooked up at home, so I thought it would be so easy to set up our new toy. It's not. I followed all the directions in the manual and a book I bought and got all the way to the screen that says "Congratulations, you're now connected to the internet!" and I was so excited (and proud seeing as how I don't get along well with tech stuff). Apparently it was a lie because when I proceeded to connect, I got nothin'. Just a homepage stating that I'm not connected to the internet. The familiar feeling of frustration is slowly setting in. Stay tuned...
