The Mac Saga

Yes! Finally settled on an iBook. I daresay that I had quite a sweet offer, actually. Originally, I'd wanted a PowerBook. After that, I'd gone home to mull over the offers. Today, surprise of surprises, they had offered a new package of upgrades! That tipped the scales in favour of the 14" iBook, really. I had actually found that out when I went to chatter with the same salesman whom I'd met yesterday. I'd asked him about the offers and he declared that there was a new one. So here I am, finally settled on that iBook. It may be heftier, but I think I like the appearance more. Moreover, its features were quite similar to those on the 12" PowerBook. Well, apart from the fact that its actually a whole pound heftier. I'd heard that iBooks were more durable, anyway, so it's a bit of a tradeoff between armor and mobility. *grin* The superdrive leaves much to be desired, as PowerBook superdrives burn DVDs more quickly and can burn dual layer DVDs. I think it shouldn't be a real problem because I'd prefer to do such things on my faster desktop. Go iBook!
