Planet Geek!: Mom and her MacBook
Nov. 2nd, 2008 09:18 pm
Mom's mac mini has been acting up lately, throwing disk errors, refusing to boot, etc. It's 3.5 years old, out of Apple warranty, and, well, it was time to upgrade.
After a brief discussion and a glance at Apple's refurb listings, we picked up a Macbook. 120gig of disk space, 1gig ram, dual core 2.1gig, combo drive, the whole works - for a mere $850.
This is Mom's first laptop, and by appearances, she seems to be taking to it just fine.
