I dunno, 'detriot thug' and applelappy seem incongruous. That's 'poorly or strangely matched' for the frat kids.

Its my understanding that macs are really only made for art people. You cannot play most poker sites and there are alot other problems. Im not an expert by any means so u may want other addvice.

Mac = 90% of programs won't work the rest you will have to buy new versions of. They are great for anyone with a 3d graphics use other than that they are not for home use without a ton of headaches...
if you do end up buying one I want to see you back here in a month telling us how you tossed it out the window on a brige after running it over with a fire truck. |

The biggest issue you'll have, Mark, is not getting used to the interface, Macs are pretty intuitive, and all that, but the frustration that comes with software.
For example, most games that come out for pcs take forever to get ported to Macs. Macs just work, but a lot of the software companies don't make versions of their software for macs. Sad but true. What are your drivers for getting a Mac instead of sticking with a pc? |
