Very true actually. Same spec machine in white cost like $100-150 less than the black one. But I got mine from the refurbished ones, saved like $300, so worked out still costing less than a new white one :) And it still had the warranty and everything too.

Ha, and I thought my machine was getting a little old 2007 or so macbook (black one, not the white ones that get all dirty) with 2.16ghz processor, 4gb of RAM and 160gb hdd. Only gripe I have with it is the graphics card is no good for games (gma950). And that 160gb is getting too small...

Can you tell me where to buy a macbook equivalent for <$300? I would so buy a stack of those.... :music:

From what I've read, it's basically automatic overclocking when some of the cores are drawing less than their maximum allowed power and/or the CPU is cool enough. You can blame Intel for picking the name. Processors - Intel� Turbo Boost Technology frequently asked questions

My first was an Apple Performa 5400, back in '96. It had a 180 mhz processor, 24 mB of RAM, and a 2gb hard drive (surprisingly, it came with a couple of features that you still don't find often today, such as an inbuilt TV tuner, a video input, and a remote). It actually still works, although...

If you will read what I said, I did not deny there was a price difference, just that it wasn't as big as people might think. As an example, compare the laptops in the following links: MacBook Pro - Apple Store (Australia) Specifications :: Satellite U500/01D [PSU8CA-01D014] :: U500 ...

I personally would choose a Mac, preferably a 13 inch macbook pro, as I have found them to be more reliable than the Toshibas and Acers that I have owned. My macbook has quite often been running continously (no restart) for over a month without problems. The screens on them are decent quality...

Couldn't get it to take a screenshot of both screens at once, so took one of each [

Well, unless the one at your house is an Amiga or something like that then you know enough to go on to bored of studies on quite a large number of computers.

Alright for wireless, I suppose.

Depends what you mean by set up. If you talking about activating it to work on a network then I'm pretty sure that itunes is the only way. If you want to be able to see the stuff on the iphone, do what Snowfox said.

Maybe a bit late for this, it might help: To change settings on an airport you go to airport utility. *Skip if you already knew that* This will be located in Applications>Utilities if you use a Mac, and in Start menu>Programs if you use Windows (maybe in a folder called Apple Software or...

I think it's more fun to play things on the old machines themselves. Adds to the atmosphere.

How about use all (of the main types) of them, like me: DOS, Windows 98 (used to have 95, but upgraded), Windows 2000, Windows XP (SP1 and SP3), Windows Vista Mac OS 6, Mac OS 7.5, Mac OS 8, Mac OS 10.3, Mac OS 10.4, Mac OS 10.5 Linux Mint 5, Linux Mint 7, OpenSuse 11, Puppy Linux 4, Wolvix...

I'm going to miss the periods of going on the internet and playing Halo against the other guys in the class. Not IPT itself though. Or the teacher, to be honest. Kyle and I had to correct her quite often about basic things (like putting a person in the BCC section when sending an email doesn't...

Oh, and the time our IPT teacher walked into class late (after we'd been let in by another teacher), looks around, says 'Hi guys!' and walks back out again, locking the door on the way out. She didn't come back either. Edit: Just remembered this one. We were coming back from a Biology excursion...

A couple more: Chemistry teacher: S******'s a fucking idiot. Us: What! Teacher: nothing. My physics teacher while demonstrating laser: You know those people moving their chairs upstairs? Well, I want this laser to be more powerful so I can burn through the floor and castrate them. *waves...

Well, my class has done a few stupid things (maybe not exactly nerdy or blonde, but oh well). For example, in Chemistry alone we have had: 1. Mercury spilt all over the floor (one guy was holding the bottle and decided that you would see it better if the bottle was upside down- unfortunately...

It's been slightly worse, but still nowhere near ajdlinux's writing. It'll be hard to beat that. To be honest, I just liked the comment on how hard it was to read.

My handwriting from english trial (note comment on the side by my teacher). Left handed is the only way to go, by the way.
