I'm buying my birthday present tomorrow.
As long as best buy has it in stock.
I'm just excited, i don't expect you to care.
Re: I'm buying my birthday present tomorrow.
What is it? Best Buys don't generally carry hookahs, so I'm curious :O
Re: I'm buying my birthday present tomorrow.
It's the new macbook pro. I know that we get in to heated debates around here (well, used to) about them, but I'm looking for a thin, lightweight, portable computer, and all of the ones I'm looking at are about around the $1000-1200 area, so I decided why not pay 200 extra for a mac.

Or you could use that $200 to get an even better slim and light laptop that's... Not a MAC. :)
Oh wells, do what you want. =[ Won't love you anymore if you get a Mac though. =[[ ... happy birthday :'(
Re: I'm buying my birthday present tomorrow.
yeah, but i Love wasting money. I've bought so much unnecessary shit in my life, why change now?
and also, can somebody type an honest list of all the things they don't like about macs? it's not gonna change my mind, but I just want to know what people don't like about em. I'll respond with why I like them, and we can have a nice healthy conversation, maybe followed by tea and a drive-in movie.

1) Everything about it's OS is horrible. (And if any dares to say crap like you can boot Windows.... STFU, because if you're booting Windows then you pretty much have a PC in a Mac's shell and there's no point for you to have a Mac at all)
2) It's overpriced.
That about sums it up.
Edit: Oh and of course when they do shit like this: http://www.iphonehacks.com/2010/04/a...h-dispute.html
It's about the Iphone, but it's all the same crap when it comes to Macs. People like to blame Adobe for the failing flash support, but it's really Apple's fault.
Re: I'm buying my birthday present tomorrow.
I used to use Macs all the time. Then when we got a new PC I started using that. When we got a new Mac last year, trying to go back to Mac OS is just mind numbing. Macs may be easier to use, but I feel you have more control over Windows, and you can do what you want. FFS! Mac OS doesn't even have a up to parent folder on their file explorer. That pissed me off the last time I was using a Mac.

One thing that I hate is about mac's is their lack of being able to make a txt document. Especially if you still hack your psp a lot, you cant just right click and make a new txt document. That always bugged me

I think you should get this laptop. it looks decent plus you can change the color of the keyboard and alienware logo. You can even change it to hot pink!

That's the computer I bought. Its the shit. Except mine has a nvidia and a dual core processor instead of the gay shit they have on this one.
Re: I'm buying my birthday present tomorrow.
The battery on it sucks though compared to the alien ware computer

Alienwares are also overpriced though, but I guess if he really wants to throw money around then it's still a better alternative (than a mac).
Re: I'm buying my birthday present tomorrow.
Get what me and SonniE have, its very worth its price. Built in Mic / Webcam and is very fast.
Dell XPS M1530
Good for gaming also, if you're into that.

Seriously,With the money he would save by buying the same computer I have, he could buy some cool gadget. Like a ZuneHD XD
Re: I'm buying my birthday present tomorrow.
The Macs have 10 hour battery life, and they are only .9" thin. the alienware one looks cool, but it only has an 11" screen and I feel like that would bee too small for working on school stuff. The fact that you can change colors on it is awesome too. I was going to by an Asus laptop, shown here:

Btw, i bought the macbook, i have 14 days to return it now if i don't like it.
Re: I'm buying my birthday present tomorrow.
guys, i gotta say that I love this thing. it is the shit. i honestly don't really feel that its $400 better than a PC, but i still think its better.
