people making noise about Maris Stella telling their students to
get a MacBook..
the newspapers reporting it as the MacBook costing their parents
"over $2,000"
thing is.. uhh.. basic MacBook = $1,688
then there is an education discount..
and by bulk through a school = cheaper
dunno what the parents are making noise about?
thing is, i know where the school is coming from.. if they want
the student to get a notebook, they should get an Apple.. it comes
with all the built-in things like bluetooth, wifi and goodness
knows what as default.. and most of all, it'll be relatively free
from virus and all that.. and running on OS X Leopard now, it would
probably be more stable and crash-proof than any notebook running
Windows Vista..
and if they still want the child to use Windows, there's always
Boot Camp to make the MacBook dual-boot...
