Apple sales have been down since Netbooks hit the market.

They should worry about that not Windows 7.

Yeah, my girlfriend wants one of those for some reason.  Do they even have USB ports?

LOL of course they do, that'd be blasphemy if it didn't have any USB ports. I saw this girl in class whip out a netbooks and I facepalmed (don't like netbooks) and she put in a flash drive on the side so yea it has USB ports.

How are you getting a free copy? Hmm, I wonder if my school will give out a college discount on 7 like they did with Vista.

^there ya go. windows 7 (home edition) for 30 bucks if you have a valid college email adress. I would've updated already if it wasnt for the fact that this laptopns' screen died (using an external monitor) and i'm sending this thing in for repairs this weekend. And all this "windows 7 is truly awesome" makes me a very unhappy boy..meh.

 

As for mac prices - from what i understand the only time when they are comparible is within the first 2-months ish from a new model launch. they never drop their prices but bring out revised hardware every year, so that means theres a good 80% of the year when mac prices are disgusting - and as a college student i despise how new model launches seem to be late in the year (read: after college students already bought their crap, meaning most mac buyers got price raped unless there was a good bonus deal - ala the free ipod touch last year or 2 years ago). bah...



um..stuff
