    Talking New computer, Macbook Pro

    Hey all

    Recently I have been working in a graphic design firm doing website design and database development. Earlier this week me and my boss came to an agreement that he buys the Macbook Pro of my dreams if I pay it off by working there Well I have the MB Pro and its GREAT!

    Is anyone else a Mac person?

    Heres the specs:
    Intel Core 2 Duo 2.16Ghz
    1.5GB RAM
    128MB ATI Radeon X1600
    120GB HDD

    Sorry to crash the party, but Apple just announced their new 8-core Mac Pro today:

    http://www.apple.com/macpro/

    Of course, the 8-core configuration will cost you at least $4000 US. Nobody can afford that.

    By "nobody", I was kind of referring to the consumer. Revision3 are professionals, and they need that power anyway.

    Nice laptop; still prefer a cheaper and better Windows equivalent, though.

    Dell's upcoming Linux PC line-up FTW

    I'm sure I have a few zealot friends that have enough money to buy 3 or 4 of the $18k ones.

    Re: New computer, Macbook Pro

    I've got a MacBook Pro (Black) and I gotta tell you it is pretty awesome. THEY BREAK EASILY THOUGH!!! I am on it right now and am required to have it for school. Mine is in the Computer Help Desk (repair shop on campus) about once a month though for some hardware reason, so be careful! (Oh yeah, and mine has absolutely no RAM...) but other than that it's the best computer I've owned up until last week when I got the Velocity Micro PC with Vista and 4G RAM, 320 HD, and a 22" monitor (a year's savings for it too)
