    Hey I found this one 2GB kit for the MacBook, I can see that it is for the MacBook Pro 17", would that mean it can work for the 15" too! It is pretty cheap $197!! .::LINK::.

    I WANT to make the switch!!!

    are you serious 2GB is under $200, the place I was looking at as an alternative for the 2GB had it for $500!!! So if I buy a 1GB RAM Mac and then buy the cheaper 2 GB I could have 3GB! I hope I can find one like that would be awesome!

    I WANT to make the switch!!!

    Eric about that, All I would be updating is the RAM and if I did it myself then I could have a Mac the same second I pay for it, since I would not have to wait for the 2 day shipping and stuff. Anyways my question is does best buy offer cheaper RAM or is it almost the same deal? Cause all I will...

    I WANT to make the switch!!!

    Well I guess I will go with the Tiger OS-X as well. Now all I have to do is get a bit more money, I am trying to save up for both university tuition and a MacBook Pro! I hope that Scholarships can help me, and that the student discount Apple gives me is helpful! Oh by the way, other than the...

    I WANT to make the switch!!!

    Hmm so if I bought one now and I wanted to update to the Leopard OS, how much would it cost me exactly? Is it as Eric said $129 or less since it is only going to be an upgrade? Also I have checked out the Apple website many times and seen some awesome videos of the leopard OS and some...

    I WANT to make the switch!!!

    Wow compared to Windows OS, OS-X is much cheaper lol! That is pretty cool! Ok about the hard drive, now is that the lowest price that I can find! I believe it was about 180 at Best Buy, so like is it the lowest or are there online stores selling for less?

    I WANT to make the switch!!!

    Ok so I will go with the 120GB HDD, and yes I do agree that what ever space you have you can work with it. Currently I am working on a 60GB HDD on my PC and when ever it is full I try to delete files or clean up as much as I can! But I guess Mac is better at the back-up stuff! Anyways what I...

    I WANT to make the switch!!!

    Ok thanks a lot guys, I guess then I will go with the lower or base end MacBook Pro, and just upgrade RAM to 2GB; seeing as 3GB is way too expensive for me and maybe upgrade HDD to 200GB! The base is 120GB! Personally from your views do you think that the 120GB HDD is enough or should I upgrade...

    I WANT to make the switch!!!

    They would allow me to do something like that! If so then I might just do that! Well the type of graphics that I want to do is sort of like avatars, signatures, and web designing; as in templates or themes for websites. Also I might use adobe image ready to give some animation from time to time...

    I WANT to make the switch!!!

    Wow that is pretty big stuff! So by next year do you expect Apple to use AMD based MacBook Pro's or that probably will not happen until a couple years from now? Also if they do release a MacBook Pro with an AMD chip would you recommend it or an Intel Core 2 Duo based one! So far I know that...
