I've always wanted a macbook but i heard alot of bad things about them :\ i heard they don't hold internet connection, you cant view some websites, AIM doesnt work on it. I have a dell desktop right now and i do not want another dell. I heard acer was a good laptop brand. Which one!

Replies Azumi Posted at 1:32 pm on April 25, 2008 I had an Acer, an old Pentium 3..about 4 years ago, it was nice little laptop, solid, and quiet. Only trouble it gave me was the CD-RW drive went out, 40$ fix, and thats it. I had it since it was new, in 1998. Go for Acer, but if you want to spend a little bit more.. an Apple is worth it... Cause Vista sucks! xD climber783 Posted at 10:00 am on April 25, 2008 Quote: from Gaz1988 at 2:56 am on April 25, 2008 Go for an acer, dell have to many technical issues. I disagree with the Acer.  I had one for about a hear.  Worked fine for about 9 months.  Then, within 3 months of each other, the hard drive, battery, and motherboard all failed.  Had to replace the thing.  It was disaster. Now, I've got a decent Gateway laptop, and I really like it. No problems, durable, its pretty fast (except i recommend XP instead of Vista, Vista's a bit slow on this box). carrington9498 Posted at 1:03 am on April 25, 2008 macbook is briallnt with no probz wat so eves Lol Frenchie3477 Posted at 12:58 am on April 25, 2008 I own a toshiba with vista... dont get vista kslice24 Posted at 12:56 am on April 25, 2008 Quote: from Energizer Bunny at 12:55 am on April 25, 2008 Of course macbooks can hold internet connections, who on earth told you that? my friend owns a macbook, the tiger? version.
