Buying a Mac

Hi All

I'm thinking of getting a 13 inch MacBook. I basically want to use it for Photoshop, Internet and Skype. I am a bit confused as how the wireless Internet would work, would all I need is some sort of wireless router? And how much would they go for?

yeah, you would need a router, assuming you have your own internet connection. Just off the top of my head you can get a decent linksys router for $60. I would check places like newegg though, if I were you.

Linksys WRT54GC is the way to go, bro! Small, compact, and really great (+ the range is unbelievable for a built-in antenna)

I have the 13" MacBook and I think it's wonderful. Compact and powerful.

i'm using a Netgear Rangemax, and its the bomb, but they tend to run a little expensive... the most at best buy, i think. its got a great look, though! 7 built-in antennas.

I am also using a Netgear Wireless router and it's the best. I had a Linksys before and it sucked so badly that it fux0red itself so, I had to return it back to the store and get a Netgear with some extra cash.
