From pc to?

What's changed in my life since i began this blog. a ton.
i am thinking like 3 yrs. ago getting my first kindle, i thought it was awesome and i still do.
the next Christmas i got the kindle fire.they entered my life just in time as i had lost a ton of my library several years back and had taken what was left and put them into snap tubs. to keep them safe.
with the entrance of the kindle my book buying changed totally. now as far as magazines and books go if its not at amazon on kindle or digital in anyway its no longer entering my house.
love my kindle books i can tuck my ever growing library into my purse and take it anywhere.
this last Christmas ii asked for the iPad mini ,and got not just that but a new desk top.

the addition of the iPad min really opened up allot more things .as far as how where and what i use too do any off my work reading or what ever i used to do on a pc. ii can do it all on my iPad anywhere in the house.
my library has a good variety of reading and into 200 books. knitting,quilting,cooking,magazine..
i also have at my fingertips a huge variety of awesome apps to use .with the addition of them my iPad can do anything my pc did, i say that because my new pc came with windows 8 which is useless without a touch screen , most of the apps they have are useless so far doing next to nothing you need them to do. p,us at the moment there are so few out there.the ones you want cost way to much for an app or are chopped up and sold at high costs bring you tab on those to the same price the old pc programs where that you bought on cds yrs back. or the programs that came with your pc just yrs ago like 3 are no longer available to you unless you buy the program for way to much. its clearly a want to be ipad in pc form. But with the entrance of the tablets be they iPads which are the best, or nooks or kindle fires, its dam clear the old desk tops will soon find their way to the heap of who wants that around. Or become the new mini home servers. Tower only . Stored out of site to be accessed through our ever growing in powerful tablets.
Personally i spend less time with the new pc doing anything but playing world of war craft then anything else. And believe me even those big on line games better start moving into the app world before the hit the pile of omg really who needs that ? Get the app. The app games need some serious work on controls though. And you can access your desk top and play but like i said the controls are still pretty bad for moving around in a game.
All in all my whole world changed with the entrance of kindle fir and the ipad mini. I have a ton more space in my craft room. No more stacks and stacks of magazines laying around. And the shelves of books has dwindled to only the books i really want to keep that are not out on kindle yet. And I love it . Totally a big time clutter breaker in this house. Even in the way i buy my movies. The DVDs collection has begun to dwindle as i buy my movies through iTunes. Lol
