Got my first Mac


Recommended Posts

I know I'm late but it is most likely your internet. Although if its freezing or crashing I don't think thats the whole issue. If its safari you're using try downloading firefox and give it a try. I prefer safari but at least you'll be able to tell if its actually the internet or something wrong with safari. You saying you got it for $900 off makes me wonder if there was something wrong with it or not? Does everything else run good? Newer version macbook? i5 or i7 processor? How much memory?

And just to join the fun. I prefer mac. Been a PC user my whole life. all 21 years of it and finally got a mac mini, macbook, and iPad this year and honestly I'll never go back in the foreseeable future. Its just nice to have your computer work when you need it to. Just have had way to many problems with pcs over the years from many makers and models. Plus to those arguing price and stuff. All macs come with at least a i5 processor. The cheapest pc laptop with a i5 processor that I've found is around $6-700 on sale so apples to apples (pun intended) they aren't that overpriced. I just prefer the GUI of a mac.

ASUS 15" i5 laptop

15" ASUS laptop with the same hardware specs as the 13" MacBook Pro that sells for $1200. ASUS is normal priced at $480. Was on sale 2 weeks ago at $450. But they're not THAT overpriced...

wtf is lolcats?

I'd def get a fat hooker if i had to resort to that kinda thing. I feel like they'd be grateful and work harder. Also its more bang for my buck, more real estate for my dollar if you catch my drift. its like the Costco of streetwalkers.

I was hoping for 150 :(.

I was hoping she would let me put it in her butt

well damn. wish i would have seen that 4 months ago. Might have one lol

Got my girlfriend one while they were on sale and then both my dad and my girlfriend's mom bought them. It's quite a nice machine. Twice as nice when you consider the price tag. I haven't had an issue with the three I've set up and played around on.

bout it as open item at best buy, worked fine the first day, shut her down and the next day it didnt turn on. Went back to BB and got the second open Mac and it did the same (but in the store it didnt turn on) my buddy works there so he went to the back and gave me a brand new one and an extra $100 off :)

Where the hell do i go to see exactly whats in this thing? Im so much more efficient using windows.... :aggressive:

its my money so why not :) same things goes if u own a ipod..when u can get a regular mp3 player..for way cheaper.. we cant be hypercritical

its true mac can get a virus but the odds of getting one is slim to none..and some pc do have better software then mac..but then again..mac gets the job done like any other computer and yeah they do cost a lot and u could get a pc with same specs for cheaper..but its not a mac..if you dont have a mac..well..then you dont have a mac :)

Sooo... You're saying that you'd buy an apple over a PC with the exact same specs and pay more just for the name? Fun stuff..

Anywho, please tell us what exactly is slow. I'll try, I've only worked with PC's, so I can't really be very descriptive.

no I have an ipod because the interface between all my cd players in my vehicles is absolutely awesome. So I pay for that. the overpriced mp3 player is just part of the package. You're the prototypical MAC fan. Someone who thinks he's smarter than he is but has already proven that he doesnt know shit about computers in the same thread.
