I want to get a mac in the mean time because it looks pretty neat. :headphone
My fujitsu laptop just died on me and im still using a desktop of course (pc p4 2.5 1.5GB ram) I want a laptop just for doing papers for school. Web surfing is number 1 with typing papers and sending email. I might be using it to browse newsgroups and occasional downloads. I just want it stable and jump from on program to the next without a problem. Im tired of spyware and viruses that I even have to carry around.
For $350 Shipped here is what i get:
iBOOK G3 550MHZ (said used, but in perfect condition, no original box)
40GB HD
128MB Ram
CD Burner
OS X 10.2.8
Airport Card
AC adapter
Software: OS, Microsoft office, other
Is this worth it? I mean how fast is the 550MHZ will it be able to handel stuff like web browsing, email, word editing, watching movies, music, newsgroups..and the basic stuff. I just dont want it to hand on me when switching apps and etc... what does the 550MHZ processor on this unit compare to on a PC(in other words which processor and about how much)?
how is the size on the notebook is it ok to carry around? not that im gonna take it anywhere from home.
Should I close the deal?
thanks
