Guest Maha_Pavitar Posted February 4, 2004 Report Posted February 4, 2004 oops, try this http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebO.../AppleStore.woa in the middle ull see a line of laptops - click the ones on the left hand side apple ibooks Thanks, they're a bit expensive, but probably cheaper if you buy from a retailer.. 0 Quote
Sherni-E-Punjab Posted February 4, 2004 Report Posted February 4, 2004 depends on what retailer..i wonder if they get it at a discounted price if they are buyin it in wholesale also, i think it prolly jus balances out...because retailer too add their profit into the price.. 0 Quote
Guest Maha_Pavitar Posted February 4, 2004 Report Posted February 4, 2004 It just depends..retailers tend to throw in free software, etc..On the other hand I may just get something custom-made..I don't wish to have memory problems, etc as I have seen with my PC.. Thanks for the info Iron Bangle..you've been a big help veerji! 0 Quote
Jag Posted February 11, 2004 Report Posted February 11, 2004 ibook is tight as far as MAC goes Linux rocks my world! 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) Linux is real good people, just get scared off because they need to actually do some real work at the computer to do what you want. Mac is good for multimedia...ect but limited in other uses and costs alot..go with XP or redhat. macosX = unix -jagbir 0 Quote
palm_w1 Posted August 16, 2004 Report Posted August 16, 2004 while the mac os may be technically better, with xp: 1. lots of cracked software readily available 2. hardware costs are relatively lower (PC) 3. u can upgrade urself, apple are notorious at ripping u off on upgrades and don't sell individual parts. or just get slackware and be better off all round. 0 Quote
tableji Posted August 16, 2004 Report Posted August 16, 2004 well as os x is based on unix, theres open source, any app u need, u can get, or some1 will make it, and if u wanna talk about underground, woah, u wnt believe the kind stuff they got 0 Quote
