My Brother in law switched today... :D

He went in Head-first...

MacBookPro, Video iPod, Shuffle, lol....

He had previously never owned any Apple products.

My mom is putting up with her "crap-top" e-machine that the screen is falling off of until tax free weekend then she is going to get a brand new black macbook! After she saw mine she wanted one real bad!



Edit: My 500th post!!:D :D

Nope. Everyone has said WoW, but the price is to steep in the UK.

My mom has used PCs all her life, and they haven't given her any trouble. Whenever she puts my MB on her lap, she's always saying "Ow! That's hot!" and with all the problems I've had with Macs I dont think she wants one. I might buy her a Mac mini, maybe not.
