Yes, I would agree with Victoria.<br>If you don't need alot of power go with a Mac Mini. <br>By the way, I looked at your site: bearfruit. Very interesting and positive. If you need any help with graphics, feel free to contact me.<br>Geoff Stevens<br>Deus Regit<br><br>> Date: Mon, 3 Nov 2008 10:04:56 -0600<br>> From: newz@bearfruit.org<br>> To: dmmug@dmmug.org<br>> Subject: [DM-MUG] possible to get intel mac laptop for under $500?<br>> <br>> Hi, my wife's computer died (an old acer) the other day. I have some<br>> money set aside for a new computer, probably not enough but I think I<br>> can scrape up about $500. In the PC world there are tons of options<br>> for this price, especially if I don't mind getting one that's been<br>> gently used. I'm a software developer (mostly websites) and have been<br>> wanting a mac in the house so that I could do more complete<br>> compatibility testing. Maybe this is my opportunity.<br>> <br>> Does anyone either have an Intel based Mac laptop for sale for under<br>> $500 or know of a trustworthy online source for such a thing? The<br>> intel macs came out almost 3 years ago so there should be something<br>> around, right? I need an Intel based machine because my wife is still<br>> addicted to a few Windows applications (the biggie is MS Publisher)<br>> and I need to be able to wean her to a new OS gently (I've been<br>> working on getting her to open source software for a year now so she's<br>> almost there :-) )<br>> <br>> -- <br>> Matthew Nuzum<br>> newz2000 on freenode<br>> _______________________________________________<br>> DMMUG mailing list<br>> Use this Address to send mail to the list:<br>> DMMUG@dmmug.org<br>> Use this page to modify subscription options:<br>> http://cialug.org/mailman/listinfo/dmmug<br></body>
