Tokolato SG

Hi everyone,

I had a Sony Vaio SZ-56GN with the following specs :

Intel Core 2 Duo Processor
T7500 (2.2 GHz)
Windows Vista Business
RAM: 2GB
HDD: 120GB (Hybrid HDD)
nVidia GeFORCE 8400 GS GPU
Optical: DVD RW
LCD: 13.3" WXGA (CBLCD)
Wireless: 802.11 a/b/g
Integrated Bluetooth
Memory Stick Duo Slot
Built in Camera
Fingerprint Sensor

I'm just a Secondary student with a netbook (Acer AOD150) , HP Desktop (S3788d) & this sony notebook.

This notebook is coming to a year old and I'm planning to sell it away. Using that money , I'm planning to buy a macbook ($1588).

I bought this for $2499 from Sony,. How much is the value for this notebook now ?

The reason for this post is : Should I keep this notebook and don't sell ? Is mac good ? What's the suggested selling price for my notebook ?

Sorry if wrong place or too long post. :)

for show?

Nah , don't get the wrong idea eh ?

Because I seldom use my notebook and instead desktop. I'm afraid that the value might "drop". And I'm also more of a "IT-man" where I do progamming etc. If I sell it away , I can't possibly be buying another windows notebook. So ya ? thanks for reply (:

Hard to answer,subjective :S

Why do you need a PC ?

(For normal serving , programming , gaming , etc)

Why do you need a Mac ?

For serving , programming , multimedia .

I'm gonna assume that Mac's functions is about the same as a PC though.

before u buy, go and check whether the programs are compatible with mac.

if u game, go get a PC.

If you already have a netbook and a desktop, and self-confessed that you don't use your laptop often, then why do you want to get another white elephant?

If you dont do any designs, dont get macbook la.

Programming need mac meh.

And also, you dont use laptop much, yet still wanna get macbook. Very contradicting. Why not you just keep you current laptop?

I think you just want a macbook cuz you see most ple are carrying one (at least my area there), right? Just want somethin new rite?
