Number 1

LEELA

9th March 2009, 8:20AM.

This computer is the first I'm going to tackle, for the very simple and lazy reason that it will by far be the easiest.  Leela is my 24" iMac, so-named after the one-eyed chick from Futurama -  and anyone who has seen one of these massively big-screened things staring back at them in the early hours while on the net will understand...

I originally bought Leela for the truly insane reason that I refuse to put iTunes on any Windows PC of mine, I hate it that much... yet I need something to hook my iPods[sup]1[/sup] to.

Leela will also be very useful as my default browsing machine while I'm setting up the others.

So, time to patch this sucker.  Plug in the net cable, go to "Software Update", and... that's it?  That's all?  No muss, no fuss?  WHERE'S THE FUN IN THAT?!?!?

Leela's Vital Statistcs

iMac 8
Intel Core 2 Duo 2.8 Ghz 
2 Gb RAM
ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro
1920 x 1200 LCD Display
320 Gb SATA HDD
OS X 10.5 Leopard

[sup]1[/sup] Yes, plural.  And it gets worse. Tomorrow, I take delivery of my shiny new iPhone.  In my defense, it makes perfect sense to have only [i]one[/i] over-the-top electronic toy in my pockets at one time instead of the two or three I carry at the moment.  The only thing the iPhone doesn't have is a camera... but I can live with that.
