Octavius: "As long as it is Mac compatible"

I think that was his pint when he said he couldn't just plug anything he wanted in. Hell, I'm waiting for that Windows Driver Expansion Microwave Slot. Then I'd never leave my computer!

I must not fear . Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear . I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

I think that Macs are nice, haven't really used one to make real critic but generally I find them nice...

Only 1 thing is disturbing: the hardware thing; you don't just put any piece of hardware in it...

I voted the price.
I HAVE a MAC. Im looking at it. Its a 800mhz iBook. Its fun to have for school (college), and i have a used 20 gig ipod (its like walking around with a 20gig hard drive in my pocket--my lady love it:cool: )
BUT i hate the price.
Sure they are good products, great products, but hell, Im a college student. Why should i fork over 1100-1750 for a decent Apple when i can spend half of that and have a slammin' PC?
I think MAC could make a killing offering more than a 50 dollar discount to college kids......Like if they hooked us up....when we were out of school with more $$$ we would stay with company because we used their products throughout school. It only makes sense
:cool:

i went on a mac once...put in the cd wanting to drag and drop the files onto my desktop but hey bro, guess wot? i dont work. they suddenly disappeared and i was like 'wtf mate?'. drag and drop of a cd with a mac doesn't actually mean u drag and drop the files onto ur desktop..no..it just means u make a COPY of the files that can only be used WHEN the cd is IN the driver...

load a tihsllub lol

Oh, you can get other types of keyboards, and things for mac. Such as Microsoft, they have come out with a mac keyboard and MICROSOFT WORD.. i got they both. Come to this site for more information on the I MEAN IT http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/72301/wo/GL3877GeN6GN3Z4QXNQdba2kU7b/0.0.7.1.0.5.13.0.3.1.3.0.7.4.1.1.0 The mouse... so many peopel dont get macs because it is ONE big button, but you can get a mouse for mac from 1 to 5 buttons just the same as PC. As for processors, you dont need to upgrade they are so good. And for the OS, i have never had a problem with it, upgradeing is easy and you can get an emulator of windows for it. Also in Mac OS X you get OS 9, the old OS, on it as well. I can run programs on my new computer that would only run on my old one.

As for processor speed, have you even looked at the new computers??? the one I have is a dual 1.2 gHz, it is a G4!!! And look at the G5! It is the fastest personal computer in the world

Ok on to Xipkell
For software, all the software you need on a computer you can get for mac. Come to this site and it will tell you all you need to know about mac software : http://www.apple.com/software/

Aron, I have never had a problem using a Mac after using windows. I used to have one but i didnt like it much. I guess it is just what kind of person you are.:D

As for you Bail Hope Belouve, your just crazy :D j/k:D

I'm not all that into the variety of them. You have a MAC then that's what you have. The Processor is MAC keyboard is MAC. On a PC you can get different brand keyboards, mice, processors. You don't like Windows you can try and go for Linux, and not have to buy a new computer. What if you have issues with the MAC OS's? That's my main issue with it.

They are practical to use, but the problem is they are a bitch to learn, if you are used to windows.
