[QUOTE="xj6jaguar1985, post: 748400, member: 60410"] I am not looking for longevity right now..Just practicality. Perhaps I am being dense..I just don't see the benefits of owning a MacBook right now. The PowerBook is mine. I have paid for it. The MacBook isn't. I borrowed the money from my father for it. Granted I only owe him $450 now (I started out owing him $800.) , I loathe owing family members money, not to mention my mother is going to flip daisies and demand I pay her back when I tell her I had to drop 3 out of my 4 classes because I'm so far behind with my illness. (Went to the Dr....She thinks I have mono...Ran the bloodwork for it.) Thus I would have to pay my mother back as soon as possible, and even if she doesn't flip daisies about it - I want to pay her back ASAP and I'm going to need $350 for the 1 class I'm taking next semester. Does that make more sense? Plus if I sold the MacBook now and got like $650 for it, that's $200 I can use to pay for next semester's class :D. [/QUOTE]
