[QUOTE="Negrophiliac, post: 220294, member: 17964"] [b]Own thoughts and thanks[/b] Well the private message was incase you didn't check your thread, but thanks for the secrectcy anyways :black: I've thought of alot of those things aswell in relation to myself. I'm just in grade 11 but I got my mini with the expectation of taking it to some sort of collage or university. Yes, I realize I will not be able to take notes on it inside a big lecture hall but it's still something nice to have at a home base I establish. For now I have a beafy shoulder case in which I carry everything besides my monitor. This is with the assumption anywhere I take it will have some sort of screen, or at least a TV (got the adapter). Espeically in my school, where there seems to be hundreds of the things lying about. This has worked out during the week I've had it, resulting in a perfect mark for a history summitive done in Flash :mac: And, being in the grade I am, I purchased my mini with money as the biggest factor. Before the macbook came out I concluded that the mini was the best computer for my budget and for performance (mostly in comparison to the ibook (eww)). But with the release of the macbook I'm not so sure now. Keep in mind I had to purchase a mouse, keyboard, speakers, and a new, different monitor (**** siblings- "We need the monitor for our computer"...jerks) But the main reason for my inquiry was that, what seems like everyone, ethier has a complaint or are returning thier mini's. Like I've said, I'm fine with mine but I was wondering why everyone else thinks some other mac is better... So what it comes down to for me is that which is overall better; the macbook or mini, and why? And if the macbook is better then is it worth attempting to return everything I have bought? Oh yea, and thanks for the reply :D [/QUOTE]
