Title: Why Not Just Buy a Apple
Post by: 16mmjunkie on February 03, 2011, 03:44:47 am
With the prices of used apple Macbook or Mac Pro why notspend the money and purchase one instead of going through building a PC with Apple OS and spending the same amount(or very close) and have a "real" Apple?

1- If you believe in "Start early, Go slowly, Reach safely, Live boaringly" that is one reason.

2- Older apples for the price are much older in terms of technology and hardware, as for what goes on otherwise.

3- Just to have the fun of doing it is another reason.

But you knew those, didn't you?

I actually own an iMac and a new MacBook Pro, but a Mac Pro costs toooo much new, and I can build one much cheaper, plus I can overclock a hackintosh..
