I'm too darned attached to my Macs - pRICE cUBE - 07-15-2013 Sitting here with my ol' 2.1ghz CD Mac Pro 17". It got a bit of extra life in it because of an SSD transplant but that deal on the 2.5gh quad MBP 17" was too good to pass up. Now I am prepping the old timer for sale and even though it has it's issues, I am emotionally attached to it like all my Macs. I don't believe PC users experience this. ![]() Re: I'm too darned attached to my Macs - Speedy - 07-15-2013 Have you considered professional help? Nothing to be ashamed of. Re: I'm too darned attached to my Macs - mikebw - 07-15-2013 Felt the same about my Gen. 1 G5 tower. But in the end it was for the best that I let it go. Re: I'm too darned attached to my Macs - haikuman - 07-15-2013 Speedy see's your issues *(:>* "Have you considered professional help? Nothing to be ashamed of." As your Doctor I advise you to take a long vacation while your brother sells this stuff and parties with you parents while you are gone *(:>* ![]() Go Tommy Go *(:>* Re: I'm too darned attached to my Macs - cbelt3 - 07-15-2013 Pc users don't experience this because their PC's are worth about $0 after three years. Or a heap of smoking wreckage. But yes, we feel your pain. Be happy and recognize that Old faithful will have a long life with it's new User. ![]() Re: I'm too darned attached to my Macs - hal - 07-15-2013 I never have a problem moving on. That's because as much as I love my current machine, the new one is even better. Dump the old one to help pay for the new one and wish it a nice life. Not a problem... Re: I'm too darned attached to my Macs - Speedy - 07-15-2013 See, hal has rationalized this quite well. My wife is helping me with my Mac issues. It isn't easy.
