What Mac goodies did you get this year?
Sadly, my family believes I spend too much time with my Mac (is such a thing possible) so they refuse to feed my addiction.
If you got a Mac or iPod this Christmas check out our iPod tips and Mac tips (though I seem to be in the minority with my feelings about the Mighty Mouse).

FYI - Australia's the 2nd country to welcome in 2007.

My son, my daughter, and I all got iPod shuffles this Christmas. We need them to replace the four 20-gig iPod's we've gotten on previous Christmas' that have since crapped out. I'm hoping that at least one of these shuffles will surpass the two-year mark thus outperforming any of the iPods I have stuffed in my desk drawer.
Now if I can just get some of my iTunes songs to load up on the new shuffle I'll consider this holiday a success. Oh..and of course Santa bought the extended protection plan since I've had to use it on every iPod I've ever owned.
Feliz Navidad Apple!

I bought myself a 24" iMac and it is huge, for someone used to using a 15" Powerbook. I'm very tempted to buy a new iPod but since my 3G still works fine, I'm gonna have to wait until MacWorld at least.

Nothing yet, but on Boxing Day I'm getting either a nice Samsung 19" wide LCD or a lower quality, but cheaper Acer of the same specs.

Wireless keyboard and, although it isn't from Apple, a 500GB external hard drive; however, it is hooked up to my Mac by means of firewire, so it counts.

Hey Bryce don't forget Wake Island, a US territory, is right on your side of the date line, making us the first to welcome 2007.

I'm typing from my bed right now using my new wireless apple keyboard and mighty mouse on my iMac. And no, my eye sight isnt good enough to read the internet from 10 feet away, but thats why holding down control and using the scroll wheel is so convenient.
And not to sound ignorant, but what is Boxing Day (aside from tomorrow)? I've never heard of it.
Oh and congrats to Dickie, you really did luck out.

A white MacBook 2GHz for me! My wife was so excited that she insisted on giving it to me a week early. I can't say I blame her. :D I've been a Mac fan since 1984 but this by far the fanciest machine I've ever used. :)
