I bought this Mac mini so I could travel with it instead of forking out for a powerbook. Just rock up at an internet cafe and plug it in, or like I did in Bali last year, buy a second hand screen for £20 for use in the hotel room watching 50p DVD's and then leave it there when you leave!!

I gotta agree the G5 imac is the perfect all in one machine!!

I dont find this one too much hassle to cart around. I take it into work with me on Saturday nights so we can hook up to the wireless connection/watch dvd's or listen to iTunes.

Then again, its not the kind of thing id put in a suitcase and take on holiday lol.

What a name for a laptop...The MacBook. Sounds like something you order at mcdonalds!

[pat42]

I think it depends on your pronounciation

If you pronounce it with the emphasis on the MAC it doesnt sound too much like the burger version

But now that you've pointed it out, it is a bit of a naff name

[Dec]

Yes, I mean all other companies name their computers as a computer should be named. Acer Travelmate ('Cos its designed for travelling buisnessmen/women), but Apple have named it after someing you turn pages with..and a mcdonald order

[pat42]

OK....you win.
I'll admit it's a s**t name, but it is an amazing machine

I have never been able to get to grips with the whole control thing. Like I am used to windows, not Mac...I suppose I should try again sometime!

Strokes goatee while saying..................I just think Mac the Mac OS is such an easy and intuitive system to use...........Maybe you should try again. You'll be impressed8)

I use a little mac mini for the net and a Powermac G5 for the studio.

Those MacBooks look LUVVERLY dont they?. I've got to try and justify spending a grand on something I dont need

Studio? ...music?


Macs are turning into PCs anyway with intel building them now and XP running on Macs !

Yeah....doing a bit of music.......well, I spend more time working my ass off to pay for my gear than actually making music

One day though I'll be able to devote most of my time to smoking loads of dope and making tunes

Yeah, Macs are PC's now .........except a lot better

I used PCs for 15 years and thought I was gonna have trouble adjusting to the Mac way of life But nope, was bloody easy! I find its actually more user friendly than Windows.

And its NEVER crashed on me, no matter what I'm doing. That was worth buying it for alone lol.

Is this the view from the car behind??



I've never used a PC....well only in internet cafes years ago.

I really really hope thats soap all over her

Had to think for a minute what you were talking about... close, but no cigar
