Apple Carts

Recently I’ve been thinking about buying a Mac. An apple a day keeps the doctor away…right? Below are the prices I’ve come up with for a 15 inch PowerBook, 17 inch PowerBook, and Mac Mini. I’d much rather have a laptop, because I already have desktop with my Dell server. $2,500 is a lot of money though! One benefit is that I’ll be able to write the purchase off on taxes, so in reality the cost is about 25% less when it comes down to it.

    ah man go for it! go mac you’ll never go back, leave the dark side!

    that 17″ is a sweet unit, and now is a great time to buy, as this could be the last generation of the g4 powerbooks, I always try to buy last generation macs, they are rock solid and have been thru the development battlefields….

    maybe if you wait another week you can get one shipped with Tiger…

    Man, I thought the Mini was supposed to be cheap? What did you get in yours?

    Well, the basic one is cheap. But when you upgrade everything to make it actually useful, the price goes way up.
