Hi Boi!,
Im in exactly the same position as yourself. I have 1500 euros to buy a laptop. Im a bit sick of windows due to reasons pointed out by other persons here. What im wondering is whats the story with the apple site? the price of the laptop inflates so much by customising it to ones satisfaction. All these add ons are expensive which leads me to the question - what are beneficial and what are unnecessary. What i enjoy is collecting & playing around with family /holiday / friends photos. What is essential is that i can still for business reasons connect to Outlook which is run off a server in the office. My business is small and the volumne of emails i receive on my outlook is small but important all the same..Also is it work buying in the north given the difference in the price on the apple.co.uk site V apple.ie
As you can tell by my terminology im not computer person but ide love realiability and simplicity....
Thanks in advance,
Pat
