One question, JB - Are you running Snow Leopard? Everything got faster for me when I upgraded.
Yup. Sure am.
By the way, another issue I had. Making people pay for an "upgrade" that was more fixes than it was upgrade.

At least it was only 30 bucks. I could've seen them marketing it as a whole new OS.
Yep, just make sure you select "upgrade" instead of doing a clean install.When you switched to snow leopard, did you just pop in the snow leopard disk and let it do its thing?

Yes, I believe so. Just as if you are getting a brand new computer.Will a clean install remove everything off of the computer and just start snow leopard from scratch?
That's one thing I definitely have to do soon. I'm still running Office for Mac circa '06.I did just get a nice copy of the new Office for Mac Beta 6 in that will go nicely with the new MBP 17 coming in tomorrow.

Good call, it is '04! Really all I ever use is Excel, which isn't that bad. The Word and PowerPoint versions are awful though. I always just use InDesign for any of that stuff anyway.They had an 06? I knew about 04 and 08 and i always used 04 because I thought it was better. Their Office software has always stunk in reality. But this is definitely an improvement.
Customer service and quality are my two biggest things to consider when making a purchase and Apple is top notch
Good choice esox!
I've been using Macs since 1984. I've never had any problems.
That is another issue I have had with them. Is anytime something is going wrong being told to go see an "Apple Genius". Oh you mean that guy that reminds me of the greasy kid from the Simpsons? That guy that thinks showering is optional, because being called a Genius at a mall store is cool?
And of course if you dont purchase "Apple Care", the Apple warranty alone is pretty bad. And once again, if you dont live near a "Genius", then its not all that convenient.
Im officially posting from my new Macbook Pro 17" right now. This thing is freaking huge.
After five years with a 12" I upgraded to a 15". My brother-in-law has the 17" and my lap wasn't big enough so I opted for the 15.Im officially posting from my new Macbook Pro 17" right now. This thing is freaking huge.
Same here, I've been using them for that long as well. We still have some great older models sitting around the office. I love iMacs and MacBook Pros, very reliable. Much more than a new Acer laptop I bought last year and it's already crashed twice and I've had to rebuild.
Every time I'm in our Mac lab at school, I get a bit overwhelmed. They have 27'' iMacs, I have a 13'' MacBook.Im officially posting from my new Macbook Pro 17" right now. This thing is freaking huge.
