Computers

I've realised the time has come that I must give in and get a computer again. I've rediscovered love of my camera and I want to work on my pictures and make a website for my paintings. I haven't had my own computer for the last 4 or 5 years, had a wee iPod thing for a while but dropped it in the bath a year or so ago and it's been really good but I realise it would be a great creative tool for me this time. Hopefully I'm finally disciplined enough to have a computer and use it for useful things! I'm rambling about this here because I don't have a clue where to start! I was searching back through my SG private messages because I remember two people recommending me computers when I wrote that mine had broken and one of them was telling me all the specifications that I would need but I can't find them or remember who it was who wrote to me now! I'm just needing something to do photos on so guess I would need a lot of storage space? I'm used to using macs but I think they are ridiculously expensive and they don't feel like they used to as a company anymore so I'm not averse to going over to the dark side...

Spring is filling me with energy and I feel optimistic about trying to use my skills again and sharing them with people. I hope you are all well and thanks for any tech advice! Xx

Spring is indeed bringing radiance! Everything in our garden is popping up and getting green, especially since it's such a 'warm' winter and spring over here. The virginia creeper, foxglove, wild flowers to help zzzzhe little bees... Lovely to strawl around there on a chill morning, witnessing the growth of everything... But anyway, on the matter of computers. I would go for a second hand Mac (or new one, if you want to spend that amount of money). My gf once bought a second hand eMac, back in the days: not a problem. I used windows-based desktops but switched to a Macbook pro: no problems anymore. My gf just purchased a Lenovo laptop: problems. Might depend on what you want to do with it... but still: you might overthink it. I suppose with the nowadays online storage possibilities, you can always go 'in the cloud'. Or get an external HD for a few bucks. Well, looking forward to seeing your art, Annalee... you've got a good eye for shooting photos, and i'm quite curious what your paintings are like. All the best!

having a computer is very important now a days, for us artists very important to work on our art and get it out there.  well i will tell you, i have a Mac book pro and i love it, i have had it for well over 4 years, pretty close to 5 years and it has been amazing, i think they are so much better for working on photography, i have done it on a lot of computers, but on a mac it is easier, and they are so easy to upgrade, i have put both more memory and a bigger hard drive in last year.
