I am so excited.

My macbook pro in its fresh new box waiting to be opened… by me!

Its so beautiful!

First time out of the box… we were both a bit nervous.

First boot up…

Macbook’s new home… I soon will be hooking up to the 2nd monitor!

All this excitment has left me tired… so I decided to take a nap.

Included in this update is a much needed redesign of the interface. You will be able to do alot with your friends. Create partys with up to 8 people and it will be social network with your friends where you can chat and send text.

I am most excited for the ability to stream 12,000 movies from the netflix library at no extra charge to your xbox 360. You do have to have a gold account on xbox live and a netflix subscription.

Here is what you can expect to happen:

—> sign in to xbox live to automatically start downloading the update

—> it may take awhile, there is a lot of new content, so be patient cause you won’t be able to use your console during the update.

—> once the update is complete you console will restart and welcome you with the new xbox experience.

so with that info take my poll below on how you feel about the update.
