Im having real trouble deciding between these two computer option sI have.

A: I could buy a 20" iMac as well as cheap netbook with internet just for when I go on vacation or it might be helpful to take to places when i have to stay there or im bored.

B: I could buy a 13" macbook.

The reason im leaning towards the imac is cause i dont leave that often and dont need a computer on the go so much.
But then i cant take it on the bed and other stuff which is annoying.
But i dont want the laptop cause it has a 13" screen which is smaller then i have ever used.
And im not sure if im allowed to bring a computer to my school to take notes.
(and it would be very acward. Its kinda like a small school and we all sit around one table and everyone else just uses a pen and paper.

So what do you guys think.

The only time i would ever leave the house with my pc is vacation, and traveling.
Im in s real pickle crazy.gif help.gif

O and what r u using right now? laptop/desktop?

Okay I don't like you but I'll help you out. Why do you want to go with mac? I use a macbook and a PC, and tbh I'm no computer guru in the sense that the OS / software matters to me that much. Are you going for performance, looking cool, OS preference, what? What's your price range?

If you don't have to have a macbook or iMac, you can get a more powerful laptop that's not a mac if you buy well, not a mac. Don't get me wrong I'm not dissing mac, but if I had a choice of laptops now I'd probably go with a considerably more powerful laptop for the same price.


Why do you hate me! haha
Cause im jewish?
I have a pretty nice pc right now but its vista!
And id rather have a mac than buy xp.
Because a mac is performance and looks:)

I had a desktop/laptop combo setup once and it was cool. Now I'm strictly a desktop user because of how I live but a laptop does have its advantages. It takes seconds to set up shop and start using a laptop. but for a desktop, it'll take me over half an hour to hook up the monitor, internet, and peripherals to the way I like it.

I'd go A so you can have the best of both worlds

Netbooks are quite underrated imo


Netbooks are underated?
I think i might go with option a after all:)
Tell me about netbooks?
Have u had one and did it come with xp or linux?
