Oh dear have I mentioned a sore subject? I guess Apple doesn't like Blu-Ray? A pity... oh well! Thanks for the info anyway. If I do get an external drive, with the latest OSX come with a player which will support Blu-Ray or would I need extra sof…

Thanks it's great to know I have a firewall at least, I'll turn that on right away. If there's no specific Mac viruses I guess I'm OK. Thanks all!

I have a current iMac on order - it's taking a lot longer for them to deliver it than I thought and they're estimating 15 or 16 March to me now. Would I be able to cancel at this stage, and if so, should I?

I just really hope the Mac world is all you make it out to be! Windows is crappy but I KNOW it - kind of better the devil you know!

Okay well I waited as long as I could but yesterday I cracked and ordered the basic iMac G5 1.6GHz. I upgraded the memory to 512Mb but left the rest alone as it's already probably over-specced for my needs - but I just love its looks and quietness s…

Thanks for the advice I'll be buying a Mac within the next week - availability at AppleStore UK is back to the standard within 24 hours on both iMacs and eMacs so I'm going to wait until the end of Tuesday this week. If no updates are announced by t…

I'm no Mac expert but I think you've answered your own question really - you want the iMac really, and I'd agree cause if you've only need to move it once a month, the iMac is slim and light enough for it not to be much more effort than an iBook, an…

It'll be a desktop. I guess the phone support will be most useful as a first-time Mac user, and I know it's limited to 90 days if you don't get AppleCare. Depends how good it is really.

Well I've been wanting a new computer for ages and have 99.9% made up my mind to get an Apple (potential "switcher" here, never had a Mac before) but since discovering sites like this it's made it really hard! First I wanted an eMac back in the days…

AppleStore UK has reduced iMac availability to 2 days, and increased eMac availability to 2 days. So I'm wondering if really it was just a temporary supply issue and we're not expecting a new upgrade after all?

If amazon can deliver just as quickly, why not cancel your current order since the Apple Store refuses to match the price? And how can it be "illegal" to offer a rebate?? I thought that was what the free market was all about!

It's putting me off the Mac mini that even now the UK Apple Store website states the Mac mini is "now shipping" when you go to the actual order page it's still quoting "3-4 weeks" as the estimated shipping time, the same thing it's said ever sinc th…

Can't seem to access that link it just comes up with a blank page

I know everyone's all keyed out about a new PowerBook and I do agree it's probably the range that most needs an update in Apple's lineup at the moment, but I hope we hear something about the eMac soon too - it's also gone a long time with no update …

Thanks for the info, it was nice to have it explained.

I think £56 difference for no reason is being fleeced. Just my opinion.
-
That's because the pound is unusually high against the dollar at the moment, and yet the UK pre-tax price is still higher by your own figures.

No-one seems to be mentioning the eMac as much now. The Powerbook is obviously due to be updated soon, as it has such long shipping times now, but the eMac is still same business day delivery. I was really hoping Apple would decide one way or the…
