hmmm
not the answers that I expected.. I thought after reading all the hype etc about apple you guys would dive all over it.. and say its the bomb.

my other concern is I have heard apples are not upgradeable or limited??? anyone advise?  I am still torn... many love the apples....... I appreciate the feedback although it is making my decision more difficult.

thx
Jim

Apple computers are upgradable but given form factor on everything except the Mac pro it's difficult to do basic upgrades such as RAM upgrades, HDD, etc.

Unless you want a dual quad xeon! If that is what you want, a Mac Pro cannot be beaten by assembling your custom PC. Even getting the parts for the money is almost impossible.
And with Apple they throw in a free nice casing, a great combination and free assembly.

With MacMini's and iMacs you pay a premium for design definetely.

so can a mac be upgraded? if so what? also you mention a few different models......whats the best one?

Also is it possible to network a mac to a pc? that way i could still use this one?

thanks
Jim

I think it's important to note that A#1, Macbooks are competitively priced with similar PC notebooks and B#2, hardware design ain't nothing.  iMacs and Macbooks are REALLY nicely designed, which makes them more pleasurable to use and carry around.  When you buy a car or a desk or a bike or a sofa, it matters to you how it looks, and how it functions.  Why would a computer be any different?
