Got my first Mac today...

[JRock]

An older iBook. 12" 1.07 GHz, 256MB pretty basic config. I love this thing. I think I may have to trade in a few of my lappies for a nice G4 Powerbook...

$700 and change... I have a Latitude D600 I may be looking to get rid of... and perhaps the i9300 I don't know just yet.

New Powerbooks and Powermacs are rumored to be coming out next wednesday.

Best thing is I can still manage everything at work from it. VPN Clent, RDP, Java for my Raritan KVM over IP, Mac office (supports Exchange), VNC... and anything that doesn't run on OSX is running on once of the servers that I can hit w/ RDP.

condolences.

oh, let me know about the D600. I have a C600 that may be dying on me.

Just put some more RAM in it. 256MB is too little - you need at least 512MB

Typical Win advice CaffeineAndStuff, why would this make a Mac better?

 

[mdchesne]

I ran my 900mhz on 640 using a free upgrade, but i agree, 256 is too little for a mac

that's only for bloated M$ products, a MAC will do fine with 256MB.
