[QUOTE="Turbo_lag, post: 730966, member: 68509"] I have never even clicked a mouse on a MAC before. I am a PC technician and I support Windows 95+. I have knowledge in COMPUTERS in general, but no knowledge about MACs. I am looking to get a MAC, something above a "G3" that I can play with, mess around and break so I can fix and learn more about MACs. I want something I can use for internet browsing, and as a regular PC on a day to day basis. I mainly visit car forums and check my mail and bank accounts, and visit alot of PORN sites :Evil: (LoL, I'm just kidding!!O:) ) (or am I?;D ). I play games like Starcraft, but I won't be using my MAC for any visual purposes or gaming. I am buying a PC that will run me just short of 1500 when Starcraft II comes out, so I just want a Laptop to play with for now. What "G" should I be looking for? Some people tell me the Intel Duo Core is a good chipset, but others tell me I will only need a G4, something wtih more then 1.5 Ghz and I don't download alot of music or files, so a 60GB HD will be fine for me. I would rather not spend an arm and a leg on a MAC, somewhere around 1k or less, obviously less being better. Also are there any places that you all know about such as MACofAllTrades.com that I can find cheap deals for MACs? Thanks for all your support in advance everyone... [/QUOTE]
