FINALLY my alienware died.
« on: October 04, 2009, 01:09:56 PM »
It finally died after 2 years, sick of the piece of 4000 euro junk!

im buying a 17 inch mackbook pro:

- 3ghz
- 8gb ram
- 500gb 7200rpm

costs: 3600 euro

i am sick of windows it kept crashing on me and it just wasnt the thing for me. i tries a mac and it's more my thing.
i will install bootcamp so i can run windows xp because of some special programs from school.



what ya think?

I dunno, windows 7 betas have been great for me. I had the first beta and now have the RC and they have never blue screened on me. Wait till win7 and save a bunch of money by building ur own comp. That macbook pro will be over 2000US, i could build one crazy system over that

get the dell xps 16.   It can do 1080p on it's screen Nvm just remembered that the MBP can too. 

Hey deda you know if you have a friend in the US you can have them order it for you and ship it to you and save about half.

$3,849.00 in the US

$3,849.00 = 2629.6368 euros

You can get mac to run on alot of laptops :tup:. osx86project.org/ has lists of what laptops work, just do a search for one your looking at, or research one they say works well. That's my suggestion, if I could afford a mac I would, they look better. BTW don't expect the genious bar to give a  :censored:  if your hackintosh breaks though. My idea is just a little cheaper.  :winker:
