My New Mac Mini

——————————————————————————–
EDIT – Well, I’ve decided to sell it. The money is just too tempting, plus my wife’s car needs new tires!! I’m selling it in my Half.com store if you’re interested… SOLD!

1. UPDATE:
   I’m trying to get a free video iPod now from the same company that I got my other free stuff from. You can get a free one too.

Well, it came yesterday. What free item was it this time, you ask? It was an Apple Mac Mini, valued at $599. Not too shabby!! It’s from the same company that I’ve recieved all of my other free stuff from, Gratis Network. I’m still debating on whether or not I should keep it or sell it. $599 is a LOT of money to turn down. Here are the pros & cons:

Pros:

• Macs are very easy to use, and have a nice, clean interface
• I’ve never had much Mac experience, and this would give me some much needed experience
• Would be very handy for editing Video in the future
• Would give my wife and I separate computers to work on
• I would be eligible to upgrade to the newest version of Mac OS X: Tiger for only $9.99

Cons:
• Would either have to buy a new monitor, or buy a KVM switch (which costs $$)
• If I didn’t buy a KVM switch, I would have to buy a keyboard and mouse
• It would really need a memory upgrade to do any kind of powerful video editing

As you can see, this isn’t a cut & dry decision. So, while I think this through, why don’t you check out some more photos, and tell me what you think I should do in the comments…

This is unbelievable! Yesterday as I was getting ready to mow the yard, my wife comes walking into the garage with a package that came for me. I wasn’t expecting anything, so I was curious to see what it was. When I opened up the box, I saw this note sitting inside. Underneath the note was a brand new iPod Mini. No way!!

Now, the story of how I came to win this Mini starts back in February. In our neighborhood, there are many houses being built. I like to go running about three times a week, on average. I had heard about Pepsi’s Free iTunes Song giveaway, so I started to look around the construction sites to see if I could find any Pepsi caps with iTunes codes on them. The thirsty construction workers who know nothing about technology turned out to be a gold mine! I have probably gotten about 50 free songs altogether. Well, for every song that you redeem on-line, Apple will enter you in a daily drawing to win a free iPod mini.

So, there you have it. I’m a winner! Needless to say, I gave the Mini to my wife because I already have one and she’s been wanting one for a long time…

WOW! I’ve done it again, but this time it was a free computer! The folks over at Gratis Internet have already hooked me up with a free iPod and a free 27″ TV. I can now add a free Dell Dimension 4700 to that list.

I’m really excited to start working on upgrading it. It came with a P4 2.8 GHZ processor, 512 MB of DDR2 memory, PCI Express, 48X CD-RW, and a 40 GB hard drive. Not too shabby! I’m going to install more memory, a media card reader, and a DVD Burner for starters. I’ll keep everyone updated on my progress. In the meantime, check out some of the pictures below:

Only in America can you get cool things like iPods, TVs, Computers, and other stuff for free!! I actually have already gotten two free items from Gratis Internet’s sites. Back in September I received my free iPod with very minimal effort. Then, in October I received my free 27″ Sony Wega TV for free also. It actually wasn’t that hard to get my free items. I signed up on the sites, completed an offer, and referred some friends who did the same. When you fulfill the requirements, they send you a free item.

My 27″ Sony Wega TV came yesterday!! I was so excited!! The picture is great, and DVDs look excellent on it! The best part…it was FREE!! I got it from freeflatscreens.com. Click below to sign up…
