yeah I have an HP right now and Im not all that happy with it. The only thing that bugs me about the macs is the lack of a single clicker instead of a right and left clicker.

single click=left click
control+click=right click
Mac's are simple

well yeah I know about that, but i like the right and left click for photoshop and other stuff

[skierdb526]

$1100 does not sound like a friend price. Buy new and keep your friends

Good advice. thanks for the heads up! Yeah Id love to get that 15 inch 2.4 ghz macbook pro.

Actually, considering that that laptop with that amount of RAM would be closer to $2k, that's a pretty decent deal.

Ah, right. Well, here's the Mighty Mouse: http://www.apple.com/mightymouse/

[skierdb526]

but the aftermarket ram price would be about 100 dollars

[Kyle Matthews]

A little more, but yah. If you can save yourself a few hundred bucks, its not too bad. Up to you, of course.

[skierdb526]

I was reading the macrumors buyers guide and it appears that the macbook pro is due for an update. Therefore I think I'll start saving for after macworld.

[Kyle Matthews]

They update every 6 months or so.
