After much persistence, I'm finally getting what I want: a new work laptop.I've had a heavy hand-me-down for the past two years, lugging it around to meetings and interviews, and it's been going out on me for probably the last year. Programs quit unexpectedly and often, with just the slightest bump, it shuts off. Meanwhile, new reporters to the newsroom or others who haven't been around as long as me have been given the light, little Mac iBook. And I've had it's grandmother.
But today, all of my nagging, er asking, has paid off.
Victory is mine.

I can empathize. It took me years to snag an upgrade back in the desktop days. I had a computer that I suspect was powered by a hamster on a wheel. Meanwhile, I was losing entire sections of interviews because I'd be typing and it would just stop registering. Congrats on your new computer! :)
