Amnesia Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 damn, i've becme a macaholic. Started with the iPod, then the Mac Mini, then the iMac, now I'm buying an iBook. 12 inch one FULLY LOADED. I need something small to take to lectures and when going on trips. My Custom Toshiba is too big, the iMac is for downstairs, and the Mini is on the same desk as the laptop. I got two close friends to buy iMacs and iPod minis oh and i just bought a shuffle today as well! the strange thing is, I WANT MORE! APPLE MOBILE, APPLE CAR, APPLE TV! Ooooooh Apple Tv, Imagine it in it's all whity laquer ipody goodness. mmmmm tasty. Oh quick question. (since i cant sleep thinking about it) If I go to the Apple store tomorrow and ask for everything (actually I kind of fibbed its 765 mb ram not the 1.2 gb so its not THAT fully loaded) will they have it> If not will they do it for me there (spec it up) and ask me to come abck in an hour. I dont think I can wait a whole day :'( Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/304655-getting-an-ibook/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrelusive978 Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 There was a MacTV at one point. Very rare, and very slow, especially by today's standards. Not, I think, what you are looking for :no: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/304655-getting-an-ibook/#findComment-585722174 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey992 Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 I love the white but it is a dirt and smudge magnet. I prefer the titaniumness (not a word?) of the PowerBook. Nice buy though.

MonkeyClaw Veteran Posted April 4, 2005 Veteran Share Posted April 4, 2005 well technically crazy, its aluminium but there used to be titanium ones, hehe. well amnesia you could always get a g5, mebe get an old imac like a g4 and/or a g3, they arent that much on ebay... you could get a powerbook, an emac, make sure you get the ipod socks... (they are actually really good...) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/304655-getting-an-ibook/#findComment-585722366 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 I didn't think Apple held BTO Mac's in their stores. Depends on what you want adding, but I always was under the impression you'd need to order it, if you wanted a non stock specced machine. Guess it depends - you could just buy the RAM at another place and install it yourself? What else would you be wanting? Bluetooth i'd imagine - which isn't stock, and isn't installable either. Larger HDD? If they have stock of one of these machines, great! I'd imagine maybe not though, so maybe you should call them first! :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/304655-getting-an-ibook/#findComment-585722641 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amnesia Posted April 4, 2005 Author Share Posted April 4, 2005 i already own a G5 :D I managed to get mine, max spec just the ram 765, that's great. Took me an hour of waiting and got over 100 pounds discount with my student discount. I'm loving it now, and thinking of modding it. That mactv is ugleh :p I want a plasma screen that looks like a G5, that would be sweet. I was near the Apple store anyway (staying at a hotel) so i popped in, asked some Q's and walked out with a nice iBook. It's updating as we speak. One problem I have though is with my WIFI.... It says wrong password and it's right. I'm sure of it. Someone said to do a Disk Fix to fix permissions. Guess I'll try that. Oh and my iBook had a few oil smudges. I guess it's from the ram? It doesn't look refurbished, I'd be ****ed if it was. I'll post pics later on.
