Steve 10,227 Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Worth every penny spent. I ended up getting it with a Solid State Hardrive. Also the high resolution screen with the high end i7 quad core processor. Starts up in about 7 seconds. Shuts down in about 2 seconds, by far one of the fastest machines you can get on the market. It doesn't miss a beat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve 10,227 Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 But macs are known to be notoriously overpriced, how can it be "worth every penny" Mac use better parts then PC's and i did a custom upgrade and got better parts put in. Reliablity and the operating system alone are worth spending the extra bit. I work with with computers and am over the amout of repairs and other crap i deal with on a daily basis. In the 5 years i have worked with computers, i would of returned about 8-10 Macs in total in comparison to about 2-3 PC's weekly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm saying companies like HP, Acer, Sony ETC, use infiriour parts in there machines. If you custom build a PC then you can get something very good for good money but if you buy a already built PC, most of the parts are cheap.

ChelseaChick 430 Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Not so much a purchase but I have made my own Christmas jumper. Blue wooly one. On the front is 3 snowmen under a big Christmas Tree, the first snowman is Frank Lampard, the second one is Fernando and the third one is Terry. They all have red hats on. Then I've got pieces of Ribbon on each shoulder with cfc crests dangling from them. Haven't finished the back yet but it will be a picture of John Terry with the caption 'Justice for John'. Yeah I'm weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
