Requesting Geek Aid
October 30th, 2005 03:39 pmI talked today with a longtime friend of the family (Amy Zilk, for those in the know). She's looking for her calling, has found a definite possibility, and wants me to do her branding/identity/look&feel for when she strikes out into her new career. This kicks ass, and will be a great project to work on. I'm a trifle scared about failing in some way, but I usually am.
( why I want Geek Aid - background info )
So what kind of Geek help do I need, you ask?
I want to know about your laptop. I want to know why you love it, why it's the best system I could ever choose. I want to know why you hate it and wish you could leave it in the middle of the bus-driveway on Railroad Ave. I want to know modelnumbers, specs, etc. I need to make an informed decision.
By-the-by, the programs I would ideally run are: Adobe Photoshop and InDesign, Corel Draw, and Macromedia Dreamweaver and Flash. These are what I prefer as a design suite (if anyone wants to hear my bit on why Corel kicks illustrators ass, just ask - I was introduced to the program at work and prefered it within TWO HOURS). I like to be able to play the occasional game, but it is not the main task.
PS - a little off-subject, my parents want to buy my Doozer (lil' bro) an MP3 player for his B-day - you could add your MP3 preferences and horror stories to the laptop info, and the fambily would be much obliged. :)
Cheers!
