    Ive had my mac mini for over a year now and it runs fine. It runs a little slower than when I first got it but its still fine the way it is. Too bad its extremely underpowered... I shouldve waited till they updated them and then bought it. The new mac mini is sooo much better.

    I have a Dell inspiron with Windows Vista a
    nd it has been nothing but a g*ddamn brutal nightmare of problems for over 4 years...

    The hardware sucks..

    Windows Vista is like a cruel joke, it is compatible with NO-THING!


    My next computer WILL be an Apple..

    Mac is where it is today far more due to strong advertising rather than strong products. No doubt Windows has a lot of problems, but there's no way in hell I'd ever choose mac over PC.

    I bet your beast depreciates in value 3 times as fast over the next year or so as well...

    So that's why the PC market has constantly implemented whatever Apple has brought to the market... such as...

    The mouse (yeah Xerox had a mouse but they never made it commercially viable)
    Firewire
    USB
    Quicktime
    CDRom

    ect. ect. ect.

    Yes, they do use slick advertising, but the product quality backs up what they are selling. Try that with Dell or Acer or Toshiba...

    so? i dont plan on selling it. i dont know why anyone would buy an old mac either. and with the money i save i can build a PC for a fraction of the price as a clunky Mac.
  • aw man, i'm sorry that sucks! i've been fortunate *knocking on desk*, i've had my macbook for 2 years, no probs yet, and an imac here at work that's been working like a dream. i hear about PCS having problems *way* more than macs overall

    It's normal for the battery to last only 20 minutes? Or only after you've dropped it a few times? :?

    it's normal for the battery to not work efficiently like when you have it new ... most electronics that use batteries are similar from what i understand ...

    But you can get a new battery, right?

  • after once again another problem with my macbook once it got back from depot being "fixed" the deal was they would replace my computer, and after spending hours on the phone with customer service, I spent a little extra annnd

    just upgraded to 15" macbook pro and it is absolutely AMAZING, so far :D
    right when I thought apple couldn't possibly be any dumber, they TOTALLY redeemed themselves.
