Mac Users Of Mtc (apple: Go Ahead, Take A Bite!)


Recommended Posts

Dear MTC-MUG,

 

I've messed up the display of my 12-inch G4 Powerbook. There's a big dark line that cuts across my screen now, although I can still view most of the area.

 

A new display would set me back US$1,000, while I could get the new dual processor one (is that the Macbook?) for a little less than US$ 2,000.

 

I got the G4 for US$ 4,000, a couple of years ago. So I feel bad to let it go to waste.

 

What would you recommend I do:

 

1) replace my LCD display for US$ 1,000, so I could "revive" the G4?

 

2) just buy a sleek external monitor for only US$ 500, and still use the G4?

 

OR:

 

3) get the new Macbook na for US$ 2,000, altogether?

 

(Note: the new Macbook's specs have at least double processing speed and RAM than my 2-year old G4.)

 

Would appreciate your thoughts. Thanks.

I was dreading that the reco was going to be that. I wonder what I'm going to get for the old G4, given the busted display? Oh well.

 

Cheers for the quick response, Nismo.

wow... MTC-MUG.... sounds nice... hehehe...

Haha!

 

I've been an Apple/Mac user for almost 24 years (starting with an Apple IIe in the early 80s), but am an MTC newbie. I thought this group was a MUG already. Well the members seem to be as helpful and as quick to respond as MUGs I've encountered. (How big is the Mac group at MTC?)

 

Yeah, why not have a name change. But that would have consequent increases in expectations and responsibility for this group. If the guys are up for it, I am with you.

Hi bro, I'm interested in getting a mac too pero hindi ko kaya using a credit card. Are there any promos for macs na pwede ang bank loan/financing?

 

I've heard from most mac users that they are less prone to virus attacks, the OS is easier to use (sorry I'm no techie so I'm assuming this means it doesn't crash like Windows), i.e., no need to use ctrl+alt+del all the time. If true, then this alone is a reason for me to switch to mac! :D

 

Thanks in advance!
