I have gone and done it again.

I am upgrading from my powerbook 15" to something with a little more meat behind it.

Dual 2GHz PowerPC G5
1GB DDR400 SDRAM (PC3200) - 2x512
160GB Serial ATA - 7200rpm
16x SuperDrive double-layer
ATI Radeon 9650 w/256MB DDR SDRAM
Bluetooth Module + AirPort Extreme Card
Apple Keyboard & Apple Mouse
Mac OS X Tiger 64 Bit

YEAH!!!!

I cannot wait to start working with Dual G5 processors for my HTML and digital video work!

Peace!

Geez...all those Mac products...

I always wanted a Mac laptop. I might get one after I save up enough money for a system for my car.

After that, definitely an iBook or Powerbook.

BTW, congrats

once thing I have noticed though; HTML work on a Mac is not as easy as on a Windows based PC.

well I am not sure what you are trying to say but in regards to editing, since I always preferred writing my own code, all I need is a simple text editor (Taco HTML Edit for now).
the only thing I don't like with Macs is that there is no way I can tell what application will open a file by default. It might be a browser or TextEdit etc.

cry.gif Get a sense of humour dude, the days pass by when you learn to laugh a little. HTML was just a bad example of what the power should be used for, but it's just for jokes, chill out.
