but never been able to afford one. Been using windows since i was 10, but
i'm going to university in a few months and i was planning on buying a 12"
ibook g4(or a the latest version if it comes out anytime soon). So could
someone please tell me why i should enter the preverbial "white garden".
plus, minus of the os, hardware etc. Basically i want someone to "sell me"
on macs, lol.
OS X rocks. It gets better each major release.
No virus or malware worries yet.
All the software you need for most stuff comes with it - AppleWorks and
iLife. Though high end stuff lacks AppleWorks for some inexplicable reason.
iBooks are tough.
And of course, to make it relevant, you can run OS X friendly Apple IIgs
emulation on them very nicely.
