So I was looking through my icon folder sets because there's nothing worse than bland default icons. (But just in case you need to restore them quickly, right-click > Get Info, highlight the icon up top, and backspace. ILU Apple.) I have customized many things. The thing that pleases me the most right now is that my emergency reboot partition (which I still need to actually install the OS on) is now graphically represented as a sonic screwdriver.

Yes, this is what I do instead of Real Work.

i've decided that for my graduation present, i'll be buying myself a mac. my friend rob has one, and they're so nice. soooo expensive though :(

You totally should. It will change your entire computing experience. No more antivirus, malware screening, and it's just a pleasure to use.

They don't have to be expensive though. A Mac mini (provided you have a monitor and keyboard) is about $600 new, and can be much less used. Sometimes if you scope out Craigslist or lowendmac.com you can find decent deals. The problem is finding slower but still adequate systems for a decent price because people snap those up quickly.
