Making the switch?
Stew | Apr 25 2006
For some years now, I've been thinking of switching from Windows to a Mac, problem is, the family has been unwilling to dive in the last several times I've had to buy a new machine. From what I've read here on the Mac's handling of GTD, I think I may finally have an excuse Here's primarily what I'm looking for: A powerbook or equivalent able to run OS X fairly if not very well. Must be able to network. Not new due to cost considerations, but not ancient. I figure anything within the last few years should adequately work. My question is, does anyone know of any sites that may provide reviews and/or sell used machines? I've tried the typical ebay/craigslist searches without much luck. Thanks! 9 Comments

I am a Apple endorser...so let me tell you about all the amazing things...nah, just kidding. But I do work exclusively with Apple for my work. The switch will be amazing. Get anything running 500 mhz or better. Even the gneration of OSX before Tiger will be amazing for you. The simple fact is that the learning time will be bad, you wont like it much...but when it clicks...you will wonder what your missing. I have a series of powerbooks. At home I run a few mac minis in series and hard drives as a sort of home base. I have two g4 towers that my life is in. I have never had an issue. Make the switch. » POSTED IN:
