Maybe it's just me, or Apple is getting more press lately. Is it a coincidence that people are inundated with products in December? It doesn't matter - I'm sold. I'm getting one. Now the only question is "when?" ... pre or post-Xmas craziness? My view is that the price can only go down, and there's certainly no rush. Just anticipation. :) Posted at December 05, 2002 at 05:21 PM ESTLast updated December 05, 2002 at 05:21 PM EST Comments
I can also help you get online too since I am now fully qualified to support Mac OS X :-) » Posted by: roy at December 5, 2002 06:07 PMToo bad I don't have cable internet access. :) » Posted by: ryan at December 5, 2002 07:27 PMSorry...I don't "do" dial up. :-P » Posted by: roy at December 5, 2002 10:34 PMha ha cableboy. Ever hear of DSL??? » Posted by: ryan at December 6, 2002 12:04 AMHey Lowe, just why do you want to get a Mac? Won't it be harder to move files to / from your other computers? And there is nothing wrong with dial-up... *sniff* At least that is why my momma tells me... » Posted by: JimboJones at December 6, 2002 08:52 AMJimbo: a common Mac myth. It will be just as easy as with a PC. True, there's no disk drive - but who the heck uses those? :) I'll get one with a SuperDrive (DVD,CD-RW) and burn discs instead ... but mostly just use a normal network connection. You can use Windows shared directories with Mac OS X right out of the box. » Posted by: ryan at December 6, 2002 07:05 PM |
