never thought I would be getting a mac

whoa, my college does have a deal with apple so that that prices are cheaper! this will prob make up the difference between a ibook and a powerbook thanks!

Yup, you should be able to save a couple hundred bucks with Apple's educational discounts.

cool, good thing you checked, now you can get a super cool powerbook!

Yes, a supercool Powerbook. Right...

thanks team! I'll post my results

ok, an update.. Tomorrow I should be getting my ibook! I'll take some pictures with my wacom hooked up to it ~

some harddrive spin at 10,000rpm or even 15,000 rpm but those are for very high end servers, a 20gb 15000rpm is like 2k$

you should know what you are talking about before you say something. a 18.4gb 15000 rpm hd is only 200 bucks... 73 gb 15000 rpm is only around 600 bucks. i have no clue where you buy your hardware but you are getting ripped off big time.


edit: michael get with it i wanna see the pics! =)
