New to Mac - 2008/04/15 16:53 I have not owned a Mac or Apple but have been told you don't have the problems with them that you do with a PC. Well, we are going to buy a laptop, as we travel a little and it would make it easier for us to keep up with our obligations while we are away from home. I have been looking around on the internet and have found some used ones, but don't really know how to tell what is what..is their numbers or someway of telling how old they are, what operating system and the others differences are? For instance a Powerbook G4 MacOSX 10.4.11, 15" , IGhz. 1 GB for $599 verses Powerbook 15" G4, 1.25ghz.1 gig ram, 80 gig HD for $1350...not knowing alot about computers to start with and nothing at all about Mac/Apple it makes it very hard to compare products.. is there any way to get any help and should I stay away from used machines??? Any help would be very much appreciated.
