When the time comes, I highly recommend
MacMALL Great prices, very reputable plus they throw in a lot of free stuff like free printers, software, and memory upgrades. I've been using them for years.

Also what are you doing calling the Fisher Price laptop old?![]()

I will say that most PCs have no souls and Macs are just cooler. But it is the GPS thing.
boxergrrlie said:Thanks everyone for the input! I thought that there would be more Windows proponents - supposedly only 2% of the population uses Mac. I suppose that is growing.
It looks like a new PowerBook is in my future. Now I just need to decide which one. I love the MacMall link. The Fisher Price Windows laptop can stay as my motorcycle computer.![]()

Cost is not the biggest consideration, but where are you seeing a price of $999 for the 12"??snoone said:Rebecca, If you are worried about cost check out the 12" ibook for $999.
And always buy Applecare.. All 50 of our macs are covered one way or another and coverage is for 3 years for just about anything that can go wrong.
