In my post about moving I left out one important detail: myself and my entire family are shifting from PC to Apple. We've been living in transition for a few years so we held off on making a platform switch, and I wanted to integrate changing computer and music environments until we moved into our new place. And tomorrow is the day.

We're getting an iMac with a giant screen for family use in the kitchen. MacBooks for my wife and boys. A MacPRO for my office and a MacBook Air for travel. An AppleTV for the family room. An Apple Time Capsule and AirPort Extreme for storage. We've gotten a taste of Apple as my older son got a MacBook last year, and I've seen first-hand how incredibly easy it is to operate in an Apple environment. I've spent so much time analyzing Apple from a competitive perspective that it's hard to believe I haven't been a user. But now I'm converting talk into action. I am totally pumped.

I am also excited to really begin using some of the cool applications that have come out since we moved into our temporary digs, like Rhapsody and Sonus. While I know some stuff about edgy consumer technology (a lot of it learned from reading blogs, with perhaps Fredbeing my principle teacher), my home environment has been decidedly 20th century. As I get to use all this fun stuff, experiment and try new things, I'll be sure to report back on my experiences.
