I'm considering changing my current PC (which has sounded like it's about to die for a couple of years now!):
- XP2500
- 1.5gig RAM
- 2x 120gig HDD
To a Mac The PC isn't really top of the range by any means! and is now really only used for the internet and sometimes Photoshop. My parents bought a Mac Mini a few weeks ago, and i think it's great. OS X just works in the way i want it to, and everything seems so much more logical!
My current thoughts are to either get a Mac Mini, or a 12inch iBook. I already have a TFT, keyboard and mouse, so both machines would be hooked up to these, but the iBook would offer more flexilibilty as i'd be able to take it out with me.
I'd probably be looking at the cheapest of each, and with student discount these come to roughly £320 and £620 respectivly.
How would the iBook cope with being used a desktop style computer most of the time? and are there any problems you can forsee with this idea?
Thanks
