[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1031745, member: 56379"] Basically you should narrow down exactly what you want to purchase. You mentioned a Mac Pro, an iMac, and a MacBook. If you mentioned the Mac-Mini...then you pretty much would have covered the entire Apple computer lineup. You need to decide if you need mobility (laptop) or not (desktop) first...then move on from there. By the way...I'm not exactly sure what your friend knows about Macintosh computers...but for the most part Mac Pros come with either quad-core or 8-core processors...versus a dual core CPU in a MacBook...so I'm not really sure how your friend says that a MacBook and a Mac Pro are similar in performance. Plus with a Mac Pro you can install a bunch of internal hard drives, install better video cards, and run up to 8 monitors simultaneously...but if you need mobility...then a Mac Pro would not be a good choice. It might also be helpful if you gave us an idea of: - your budget - if you're interested in new or used only - Nick [/QUOTE]

How many occurrences of a n-u-m-b-e-r between "d" and "f" in this example...(sdgs6ngklu3gd#f9%)?
