TMac Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 So would it be cheaper to order my iMac with 512 MB of RAM and then order more RAM from that website linked above or just buy it all from Apple? Link to comment
Paralex Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 So would it be cheaper to order my iMac with 512 MB of RAM and then order more RAM from that website linked above or just buy it all from Apple?Depends on how much a DDR2 stick costs in a seperate store. It costs only $300 to upgrade to 2GB from the Apple online store. ($600 in a retail store)But iMacs with 512MB RAM run very well. Link to comment
TMac Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 Well I just going to get one with 1GB of RAM. I'm ordering my iMac as soon as I return home from vacation in California. Link to comment
Paralex Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 Seriously, you should definantly get one. Mine should be arriving to my house via FedEx around Monday or Tuesday. I'm anxious for it. I will have the most powerful computer in my town. Also, I think to upgrade to 1GB of RAM, it's $150. It won't really matter by then because you're already paying so much for it, that's why I maxed out my specs. Link to comment
juno Posted June 5, 2006 Report Share Posted June 5, 2006 I know, I know...mods will yell at me to put this into the Hardware thread but, being a "veteran" of AS from the old days I figured that I deserved my own 8(I just ordered a new Macbook Pro yesterday, with a keyboard, Aperture and 2gb of ram. Since 2001 I have modded my computer to be like a Mac, and in 2006 I finally scrape the cash together to buy one.Thanks for all the cool customization and bantering over the years. Link to comment

I finally "switched" (and it's about time!) http://www.liquidnite.net/imac/ Click the link, there's 5 pictures in there (they're all around 400kb-500kb each) I was too lazy to do a nice little page for it, so I left you to browse the directory, so have fun.

wiebeest Posted June 21, 2006 Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 I finally jumped the Apple-wagon too. After lot's of Aqua-softing, Aqua-fying and finally OS X 86-ing on my Athlon64 system, yesterday I bought myself the white 2 Ghz/slot loading super-drive featured Macbook, and so far it really just works! I got online wireless without ISP within 10 minutes from unpacking. I am truely amazed... Link to comment
abbaZaba Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 got myself a Black 30gb iPod that plays video as a graduation present. I had never really used an iPod before and I didn't realize how pretty this thing is. the black is definitely really slick. Link to comment
etnik04 Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 Hey guys, I am glad to say that I switched to a brand new Mac Book 2Ghz (the white version) and I am totally satisfied with this apple laptop.It is a great laptop and I would just say : BUY A MACBOOK, it's just great.Later guys Link to comment
Ken Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 I haven't actually bought one, but I had the chance to play with a MacBook a couple of days ago.It was stunning just out of the box! The wireless connection was just a click away, iSight was miles ahead of my current webcam, the keyboard felt great, the screen is perfect (although I never liked glossy screens) and Spotlight finds everything in no time.I could almost hear it whispering "take me home!"
