The conversion


Over the past 6 months I have been sitting on the fence between the world of PC's verses Mac's. For sometime now, I have been in need of a new computer that will give me some more speed and better capability for mobility and working with pictures. I knew that at some point, I needed to trade my desktop in for a laptop. It has been a grueling month of going back and forth between being able to take the step and make the purchase. After the events of this week, I honestly thought tonight was the night. I drove all the way out to Oakbrook shopping center. As I got out of my car, my heart was so excited about the opportunity that was in front of me. It was happening, I was converting to Mac. As I walked to the store it was almost like a victory lap (music and all). Then it happened.... I walked to the front of the store and here is what it said...

"This store is temporarily closed for renovations until November 16th. Sorry for any inconvenience."


Closed for renovations? Who closes their store for renovations but doesn't allow people to shop? Do they not realize the agony I have gone through in making this decision? I stood at the door and knocked... yet they were closed.


Is this closed door a sign? Do I give Mac another chance?
