I've Switched...

I've been a die hard pc user, and made fun of macs from time to time. Although i've always liked something about the iBooks and Powerbooks. I still use my pc, but I'm posting this off of my new 14" 60gb, 256 ram (soon to be upgraded), built in airport iBook. I got it for $850 brand new with tax, and so far I'm very pleased with it! I just need to learn all the tricks, because i've always used windows.

Cheers,
-Eric

Welcome aboard! :mac:

Hehe...another convert.

Welcome.....yes...another convert...It won't be long before you see how awesome OS X really is, and then ditch the PC....

It's like living in a four bedroom house with a patio it's ok better than a horrible flat then you win the lottery and buy a mansion(mac) and you relise how good/better it is and you wont go back to your old house(XP) unless the wife kicks you out and got nowere to go

wecome to the forums, and congrats on the switch, youll never look back, now your coputer life really starts.

Wait. A brand new iBook for 850? Isn't that a little...450 bucks less than Apple's price?

Ex co-worker works at the apple store.

yup, I have friends that work for apple and lend me their discounts on top of the student discount, I recently purchased a emac w/ superdrive for $475 USD for my niece and nephews. I love apple.

Im not so happy about my $50 student discount on my ibook anymore, lol.

Apple's 12" ibook student discount sux..

yea but $50 is $50 i suppose...

I look at this way. The discount may not be much, but it does pay for the taxes on the system.
