It was about the day after Steve Jobs passed away, when I bought an iPad to condole his death. I don't know why I did that, because I didn't have any emotional attachment on him and his products. It was just another historical story that I had happened to encounter with. And it was a totally independent and random affair. But anyway, I bought that on the date of 7th October 2011, if my memory is correct. I resided in Jeju during that period and spent a great deal of time in reading and studying. And in terms of necessity, it was definitely a supplement since I did have the raptop computer. It was an experience like seeing is believing. After touching a screen for a while, I realized why the Apple products were entitled in the word of an intuitive grasp.
The thing is that it still runs after all these years. It has been almost seven years since its usuage. It is slow for sure but alright to browse web surfings.
My buddy asked me to give it to him, because I am not a frequent user at all. And he emphasized on the importance of usuage rather than that of preservation in my memory. I was opposed to his opinion at first. But I got persuaded on second thought that there is nothing more precious than being used in a real physical sense.
I am going to send it to him soon.
