    Plus, if you're putting a Mac in your kitchen, the best option is an iMac G5 (which can be easily mounted on a wall), not a Mac Mini.

    Why would you bother getting Apple Care on a computer as cheap as the Mac Mini?

    Slightly bigger than the mini-mac, and not as stylish.
    Damn, you weren't joking when you said "not as stylish." Of course, you understated it quite a bit.

    All of the other replies to your post were excellent too in their focus price and how the linked computer it typically more expensive and less equipped than the Mac Mini.

    Maybe he's a big fan of spyware and would miss out on all of the "fun" if he got a Mac.

  7. Geez... on PC Competition for the Mac mini? · · Score: 1

    Just buy her the Mac. You've already proven to yourself that there is nothing out there that is comparable.

  8. Re:Mac in the Back on Bill Gates in 1983 Teen Beat Magazine · · Score: 1

    Good. It's just that a lot of people don't seem to acknowledge the fact.

    Wikipedia has an interesting article that discusses the importance of the Macintosh in Word's development.

    Yes, everyone know Microsoft was writing software for the Mac "back then." It's not like they continue to do so.

    Right, and in 10.4 each application will be able to access over 4GB RAM.

  11. N-Gage No Longer Relevant on N-Gage No Longer Relevant · · Score: 4, Funny

    Doesn't the title falsely indicate that the N-Gage was at one time relevant?

    I don't know about you guys, but I'm not very sympathetic to a pre-med student without any ethics. It makes you wonder what kind of physician he'll become.

    If I buy two of these, I can fit a Terabyte in my Power Mac G5.

    The Ipod is revolutionary because for many people, it gives them easy access to their entire music collection where ever they are. Nothing before it gave people the exact same combination of benefits.

    It doesn't do this for me, but it does for most people.
