Again, and i repeat, I really appricieate everyones advice, however, PLEASE DONT EVEN POST THE WORD MAC IN THIS THREAD AGAIN. I wont consider one.

Thanks but Mark/West is kind of the owner of Zilvia so I don't think telling him not to say mac is going to work. Hahaha.........

Mac mac mac mac mac.

I surely cannot live without mine. I am going to try and have the best of both worlds. A PC with Mac OS on dual boot.

Did I mention Macs hold their resale, CrimsonRockett could sell his G4 (4+ years old) for more than what you say you're going to purchase.

some ppl just find Macs easier to use, others PC.
there's not too much point in trying to convert someone from one side to the other.
its like a democrat arguing with a republican.

I prefer PC because of the games & music,
My Mac is for video editing & office apps.
It's nice to have both, but I'm probably in the minority here.

I think they'll eventually come out with this.

Make billions.

Ok.. Think i found my final pick.. It seems reasonably priced and will do everything I need. Does this seem like a decent set-up? For a decent price?

HP - Laptop with AMD Turion™ X2 Dual-Core Mobile Processor - G60-445DX

Thanks again

chibo · 10-12-2009, 12:34 AM

Yes, that will do what you need.

gotta240 · 10-12-2009, 01:50 AM

Sorry, Final two....

Or this for about 80 more?

HP - Laptop with Intel® Pentium® Processor - Piano Black - G60-442OM

Sister bought a hp like a year after i got mines, just a bit over 3 years now, and it took a major crap on her. My toshiba run non-stop. No crashing and dont get hella hot like other laptops out there.

My older brother bought a hp a year after me, and after 3 days, took it in and traded it for a toshiba. Likes it HELLA more, and it still runs almost like new. I do clean mines with alcohol once a week and vacum from where the fans blow out to get as much dust out as possible. Wait till windows 7 october 22 i believe, unless they are already pre-installed on computers on shelves already. toshiba>hp all day.

If I had to choose those two, I would go with the first one.
