[QUOTE="Chris H., post: 995983, member: 124706"] All Mac computers have an Airport card built right in. There's no need to use an external one- or install an internal one for that matter. You can also connect directly to ethernet. Wireless routers work with any computer, most any OS. Including Mac OS X. The only "hidden string attached" is [URL="http://www.apple.com/mobileme/"][COLOR="blue"]Mobile Me[/COLOR][/URL] ($100 USD), and [URL="http://www.apple.com/iwork/download-trial/"][COLOR="Blue"]iWork '09[/COLOR][/URL] (30-Day free trial, $40 after), both of which are optional downloads. iLife (iPhoto, iWeb, GarageBand, iMovie, iDVD) is free. Mac OS X does not need any stupid activation fee-there isn't one. However, upgrading to a later version of Mac OS X (which after Snow Leopard, most Mac users will do) will cost something. But that's later on. Everything works right out of the box! Enjoy. :D [/QUOTE]
