[QUOTE="Oneironaut, post: 1001849, member: 88633"] Most people here will tell you the same thing: you get what you pay for. For less money, you get a cheap plastic windows machine brimming with crapware and running an OS known for its headache inducing tendencies. For more money, you get an aluminum piece of art that runs a stabler, more efficient OS. It just depends on what's more important to you. Just keep in mind that most Macs last for many years longer than many Windows machines. You can find deals on ebay, but most newbs don't realize that Macs come with machine-specific installation disks. If you buy a Mac on ebay and no disks are included, you've probably paid for a stolen machine. Whatever you do, make sure you get the original installation disks or at least make sure you can afford to buy them and then wipe out the hard drive. [/QUOTE]
