  • Thanks again. Your advice has been very helpful.
  • My main use for the computer will be web browsing, Office, iTunes, iPhoto, iWeb, some Photoshop/iDVD/iMovie, and (my thinking as of now) Parallels to run a couple Windows apps I need. I'm not a power user, by any stretch, but I find my G5 iMac with…
  • Ah, that stinks. Many thanks for your reply.
  • Good question. I have 1 GB of RAM... shouldn't that be enough or no? And correct, I'm not using HD. Thanks.
  • Never mind... I pulled it from another computer.

  • I was given no choice... 5-day ground... and at first it said 'delivered by 4/29' and now it says 'shipped on or before 4/28'. If it's not here on 4/29 I'm going to buy it at the store and return the copy they send to me (not to mention be a little…
  • I've been getting pop-unders on two specific sites, including drudgereport.com I've hit the bug button to report to Apple. I hope they fix it soon because I had taken a pop-up/under-free browsing experience for granted.

  • I was hesitant about the noise issue as well, but mine is pretty close to silent. I had been using a 1st gen PB which is like a hurricane compared to the iMac. It just has a very low, slightly audible whirring noise. It's next to nothing. I ha…
  • So I bought my iMac today. An iLife '05 software pack (sans box) had been slid in the top. Below the cardboard but above one of the inner flaps. So no $20 fee. This goes against everything Apple phone reps told me. YMMV.
  • Thanks again everyone for the replies. I need the computer now. My TiBook is getting so unbearably slow... plus, she's nearly four-years-old. It's time to bump her down to easy duty. Additionally, I graduate in May. June would be too late. …
  • Thank you all for your replies. With regard to the last one, I get the following when I select my school: Qualifying purchases per academic school year (July 1 - June 30): Power Mac, iMac, eMac, PowerBook, or iBook - One per year Printers - …
  • Quote: Originally posted by GoatifiedCreature During ordering my (first ever Mac) new imac, Apple store uk confirmed that iLife 05 came bundled standard with the imac since some date in January . I stressed this, as the website still shows iLife …
  • I know that some have been having problems in recent days. Don't know why... Try, try again. It's really poor for this service to be so spotty considering its price tag.
  • I am about to get a G5 iMac 1.8Ghz. I am currently using a 1st generation TiBook running 400mhz with 256MB of ram. Obviously, this can be crippling for some things. If all I use my computer for is word processing, Entourage, iTunes, iPhoto (occ…
  • FYI - they are now showing an 'Up-to-Date' program for all hardware bought on or after January 11, 2005. Get iLife '05 for $19.99 when it's ready. http://www.apple.com/ilife/uptodate/ If you really want/need the PB now, $20 shouldn't get in…
  • Quote: Originally posted by nathanaaron Thanks! So, but they are definitely going to have to "upgrade" the computers/laptops with the new software, iLife '05, right? I can't imagine them leaving iLife '04 on them, while they sell the new version.…
  • That's it for major announcements this time around. There could possibly be minor updates to PowerBooks in the coming weeks, but only on Tuesdays. You just have to keep checking apple.com. I wish I knew when the next round of updates for the iM…
