TO WIN: Leave a comment here ~ Tell us about your mac! ENTER BY 12/02. WINNER: Caroline in NY!
Ok, so everything got a little jumbled up, and i got a bit behind on what i had planned for today with all the Thanksgiving festivities! So switching things up a little, here’s the second (of 5!) giveaway from our 2008 Gift Guide Sponsor, Seagate! I know, the first Seagate Giveaway isn’t even over until tonight, but this one is even more exciting! Especially if you’re a mac user! Today’s giveaway is the Seagate FreeAgent Go 320 GB External Hard drive for Mac! I know, you’re probably wondering what the difference from the other one is, so here you go: (1) Silver (not blue) (2) has Firewire 800/USB 2.0 and comes with the FW 800 cable, FW 800 to 400 convertor cable, USB cable, and USB power cable (the other was only USB 2.0, and came with a USB cable) (3) has travel case (4) has desktop docking station… and it’s formatted for Mac and Time Machine-ready!
Basically you get even MORE goodies with this one, and it can have transfer speeds that are nearly twice as fast! So, for this giveaway, tell us something about your mac in the comments for a chance to win! (And non-mac users, don’t worry there are more drives to come…) See more pictures of this bundle on the next page!

I think macs secretly have a 3 year lifespan. The extended apple care expires, and you’re thinking to yourself “the $250 to re-up is a bit steep, and things have been good so far….” Then BAM! Good bye optical drive. BAM! Your laptop’s battery is dead (though that is definitely a quieter, creeping death. Still just as sinister.)
And just about that time the newest round of shiny new laptops has made a big splash and is tempting you at every turn to upgrade. Upgrade or die! (Adobe though, definitely wins on the diabolical upgrade every other year plan).
So from that, you can probably figure out that my laptop is seemingly just a few steps from death’s door at the moment. Optical drive is gone, battery is headed for the recycling heap. But I still love me some mac action. Just wish I had a new one…
