Hey Voxers, Voxels, Voxettes. I need some advice!
Today I need to decide whether or not to make the largest purchase with my summer earnings. I need to determine whether to buy a MacBook Pro before work ends today. Why today? Tomorrow is my Mom's birthday and my Dad has offered me a slight discount if I hand over the complimentary Nano iPod as a gift for my Mom. I have no qualms giving up the iPod, and any discount I can grab my hands on the better.
I'm a die-hard pure-bred mac fan (I was but a wee thing when I started cliciking on the old classic, and Cosmic Osmo is one of my most beloved childhood memories), so if any of you have positive/negative reviews about the MacBook (does it get too hot? how do adobe programs run on it? are you completely satisfied etc.) I would be most appreciative. Any input would be fantastic and thank you in advance!
Edit: Alright folks, after gathering my thoughts and contemplating the comments I received on this post, I've decided to hold back on buying a MacBook for the time being, my dear old computer will have to serve me well. It's dvd/cd-rom players don't work and its a bit banged up, but it still chugs along. In particular, I use my computer half for communication and half for design/animation, so its important that the respective programs run quickly.
I can't say how pleased I am at how much feedback I got from this community. Its wonderful to know that Vox has harbored online persons together to actively collaborate and exchange. I can only imagine what the future beholds us voxers :). Thanks again to all!
