When building or buying a computer, make sure it's special enough so that you relate to it as THE computer, not A computer.
You'll love it longer, reach for it with more passion as a creative tool, and in general the value returned will flow more and for longer.
It's also just tons more fun and leads to better system names like "Tangie" (99 iBook) or "Angel" (white PC case with Overwatch Mercy wing decal.)
Keep #PersonalComputing personal. 🥰
@ellabellafull Alternate view: It's merely a conduit for information. There is no inherent relation to the hardware itself, just the content it provides.
@ellabellafull a tangerine clamshell was indeed a special thing :)
