Re: New Laptop...

Re: New Laptop...


Airbooks are beautiful!! We have MACs and PCs in the office . . . infact MACs where the only computer I used between about 1989 and 1995, however since then it's been PCs (apart from a brief spell with the original turquoise iMAC when it came out) which I have to admit, I'm more comfortable with.

I love the cute user interface with the MAC, but to me it's not quite as intuitive as the PC. It's what you get used to I suppose!!

Re: New Laptop...


I guess you always have to be aware of compatibility issues with your clients/customers too?

I know nothing about MACs - but suppose that you can use similar software packages (eg MS) on them?

Re: New Laptop...


Hmm I am considering a laptop....in fact went into PC world/comet today and had a look to get some info a decided I liked the HPIQ500 but think its a bit expensive but no base unit its a bit like Star trek http://www.comet.co.uk/shopcomet/cat...sort/price_asc

Also looked at the Mac option.....http://www.comet.co.uk/shopcomet/pro...ab/accessories

Really liked both of them. Star trek.
