Fully loaded is about £10k isn't it?

[gghc87]

not sure,  the article talks about a Configure-to-order options so if your cheque book is big enough then go wild I guess...

Quote from the article   ^^^^^^

 

"Alternatively you could buy a car. Or several cars. Or maybe even a small island to call your own."

Just joining the Mac brigade, ordered a MacBook Pro, hoping it's arrived when I get get back from here (Saudi).

I'd buy this, if they hadn't overdimensioned the 2008 model so much - mine is still going strong here.

[Stirling_Villeneuve]

Mine too but pretty soon it'll be joining the other old Macs... everything's going Maverick, updates won't work and the old machine's will be obsolete. However...

 

It's the way of all things Mac, I'm amazed the old Mac Pro's lasted so long... that doesn't help with the small matter of having to lash out plenty ££££ for a small black cylinder BUT... it does look the part!

Hmm...9.9 in height, 6.6 in diameter, wonder how they came up with those dimensions?

An iHammer?

My brother in law was telling me there is something you can put on a MAC to get rid of this Apple system so you can run Windows. Anyone tried that?

Nope.... but I haven't tried fitting an engine from a Morris Minor into an Exige S either!

I know my boss has a Mac at home on which he can select Apple or Windows software when he starts it up.

[Stirling_Villeneuve]

hahaha but why did they fit the engine from a 2cv in it to start with!

 

Buddsy 

I've no idea but that's a question for Lotus not Apple... 

 

In the meantime... there's a number of PC emulators, no idea why you'd want one but hey...

I use 'Parallels' for the odd occasion my Mac needs to act like a toy..... sorry, Windows machine.
