iBook!

[Jnco]

I've always wanted a mac, but could only afford to build my own PC. I finally have a job that allows me to rake in enough to buys myself an iBook! Hatacha! I should have the funds on the 8th of October! Anyway, to the point. I'm going to mostly use it for creating songs with garageband (I'm the drummer in a band, and this would help immensly), watching DVDs, surfing, etc. But I did see that there is a Battlefield 1942 version for mac, would this run on an iBook? It said there was a 32mb Radeon 9200 card inside, and if I remember correctly, that is around the requirements of BF. Obviously this isn't a gamming machine, but I was wondering what if any games it could run. Also, I have absolutly NO mac experiance, but I am just about to chuck my home-made piece of crap out the window. Anyway again...Is there any way to network between a mac and a PC? And finally, what's the general consensus on this machine?
Thanks a ton in advance!

about battlefield, i have no idea. im not a gamer. but your making the right choice about coming to the mac. and yes pc and mac network real easy. just go to your system prefs.. then sharing, then turn on Windows sharing.

Go to the apple center of your city
Or the shops that authorize for selling apple

For the game ibook will run well, but do not except it run as good as desktop(with good video card).
And it wise you chose apple, it totally meets you requirement.

And more stable, fast, atrractive UI,********and so on,operating system.

Furthermore, i think the unix is perfect, i really fall in love with apple, my ibook, which i will pay the money back to my parents by working in the holiday

chose mac, and enjoy it

I've got my iBook running Unreal Tournamnet 2k4.

The only issue that I have with it is that it made me realize that I should have gotten the RAM upgrade... oh, well.

other than that, the game runs great.

and speaking of Apple Centers...

Why is the Virginia Beach/Norfolk area still without an Apple Store? Why?

I have to go to a Mac Authorized Comp USA to get anything, if I don't want to either A. Drive to Richmond, or B. Apple Store online...
