Yup, there's a Macbook now. \m/
Black and white, with the little camera and everything.

However, the black one's more expensive, even taking into account the harddrive.
But they're still sexy.

If I were to get a notebook, it would probably be this. Although I don't have the money or the need for one right now.
Pretty spiffs though! _________________

Sadly, I don't think my planned laptop purchase this summer will be one of these, as much as I like them. _________________ Married to Terri.

if you want a macbook, but can't justify spending that much, buy the notebook PC Asus also makes with the same specs for $1,000 less. You can install OSX x86 on it and you get to keep the second mouse button!
Although, you do get better performance if you just leave Windows on it.
Then again, you get better performance on all Intel Macs by installing Windows. _________________ Come into my den let me hear you cluck

Fancy.
My school has really bad Macs, which is (probably) a shame.
I'd buy one of those if I had some money to spend, though. |

ASUS is making T2400-based notebooks for $99? I'm impressed. _________________ Married to Terri.

ITS, just admit that Macs ARE better for graphic design.
And the interface is a bit more user friendly.
I'm not getting the Macbook just yet, I'm going to wait until the end of summer, so I can get the best one. _________________

looks like one button to me.

I dunno, talk to Beyonder.

Too bad nobody challenged my "Windows performs better than Mac OSX on Intel Macs" statement. Those are fun numbers. _________________ Come into my den let me hear you cluck

I like Mac better period. Personally I find Windows to crash every two seconds or so (Mac almost never crashes) and to lag like HELL when trying to do ANYTHING (mac has little lag).
Ok ITS, maybe a BRAND NEW windows computer will never lag or do anything wrong or crash at all, but keep that computer for a few years and tell me it's still like that. _________________
