[QUOTE="joebmx, post: 1348973, member: 231493"] It's been a while since I've really gotten into a mac. Was around 2008 that I last found myself using one regularly but that was on an older MacBook, maybe even still a power book, it was the aluminum chasis 15" screen but I think was purchased by my friend sometime early 2006 late 2005. It was okay but still worked better than anything I had at the time. I'm pretty happy with wondows though am really looking to become more familiar with snow leopard or lion, that in combination with the hardware I feel that no pc can really touch a mac. I drool everytime I play with one at best buy. Maybe I'm not looking at the equally expensive pc's to drool over. Again the biggest concern being will the macbook last? I don't want to drop all my cash and have the hard drive go in a year or something else kick the bucket on me and have a fancy doorstop. My other friends have a 2006 macbook and something just failed internally on that. That's my concern. [/QUOTE]
