First let me say hello to everyone.



I've been thinking about getting a mac for awhile now especially since I got into web developing. I love the way macs are designed and the layout of OSX but I just wish they had more software support. I been checking out prices on ibooks and powerbooks and they are out of my price range. But a friend of mine told me about this website

http://www.notebooks4free.com/default.aspx?r=193950 so I thought it was interesting and really thought it was a scam. I did my research and comes to find out its legit. So if im successful with this then I hope to get a mac for free but if it doesn't work out then i'll be saving up for one for along time. Gotta love paying for house and cost of living.

    If you have the funds, GO Mac for design, you will not regret it. but do not get rid of windows, keep it arround for testing under IE and Firefox to make absolutly shure that every one can use your product the way you intend.



    The site you mention is a scam, you moron. would you give away a laptop to anyone who can give names of 5 people and sign up for a creditcard?



    if you want a Mac, take my approche, work your ass off and save for one!

    by the way, you are either a spammer or you do not know a damn thing about pro web design if you think it can be done on a 12 inch ibook with stock specs.



    and the mac may be free if you work the scam right and get lucky, but you still need ~2000$ in software like studio mx and adobe PS/Illistrator CS



    By the way, the website you posted says this is not a pirimyd scheme, and that much is true, it is acctualy a ponzy (sp?) scheme
