Several things, but I don't want to start over-doing it now do I.
Cheers Will, much appreciated.
Assumign once I've done it then I can install my software easily enough just like a PC, happy days.
Is it possible to have 2, XP and windows 7?!
OK cool, thats the first problem solved!
Is it just a case of buying XP and putting the disc in and following the steps then?
Surely it can't be that easy?!
And can you still buy XP? Anyone have a disc?!
Should finally get my macbook tomorrow :D
Wanting to install XP on it to run some software at work, how do I go about it?
Just realised also I haven't got a disk drive on it....doh!
As much help as poss needed as I've never even seen a macbook yet!!
I had then ring me earlier on, bunch of idiots!
Mine has been delayed because Billing Address is different to Delivery Address, and they wanted to deliver to Billing address.
Anyways, estimated delivery date is 19th to 21st but still awaiting despatched email. Hopefully get it before Christmas.
Lost about £4.3k on my R26 in 6 months, needed a very quick sale though so had to be done.
Made money on every other car I've owned bar one though, so still up in the grand scheme of things.
Right, need a bit of help.
I bought my dad some wind deflectors for his Range Rover off ebay, but theyre shite.
Basically they trip the safety thing so the windows can't go up without going down again thinking there's an arm trapped in it or whatever.
So I need to get him some that actually...
Definately.
I've only ordered one because of it, never even considered them before!
But after doing some research I should be able to merge my 3 laptops into one so fingers crossed it ends up being a good decision!
It's hardly huge money!
And technically this isn't the cause of the credit crunch, it goes a lot further down the line.
I could have bought the one I ordered outright from the pocket change in my current account, but interest free etc why not just do it monthly?
OK, it now says:
Awaiting Payment. Despatched: 1-3 business days Delivers 21st-23rd December.
What?! I don't want to wait that long!
I paiud extra for next day delivery!
Right I just bought one, kind of.
Been provisionally accepted by Barclays finance, says they may contact me for more info.
Does that mean they'll ring up and ask if I'm a student?!
Excellent, thanks Roy.
Jenic, I'm just nervous of doing that, having a problem, going to try and sort it and get told that it should be the students laptop and then I'm in the s**t.
Right, last question:
13" MBA for £1100
13" MBP for £1000
What's the difference between the 2?! Hard drive is bigger on the MBP but that doesn't bother me, which will be better for my useage?
Thanks for that Roy. That does still mean I can transfer music etc to the Laptop thought doesn't it...
Well since I will finance it it's only £20 a month for peace of mind I guess, and should get that back for my Laptop so I guess I will just stand still.
I'm not a techniology ***** who knows how to fix this kind of thing and the last thing I want to do is spend £1k on something that breaks and...
Roy, I see your point, but for £200 is it not just worth it?
What would be likely to break? Surely most things are going to cost me £200 as I would have to pay someone to do it, so even 1 problem would pay for itself?
Dave, bare with me, it's a lot of money to spend on an impulse to replace a...
Right can we sumarise.
When (if) I buy one tonight, I should be able to:
Get it out of the box, be able to charge it and turn it on.
I will be able to connect to the wireless network I have and look at stuff.
I can download Itunes and just transfer music from my old laptop with an external...
So the general consensus is if I don't buy one then I might regret it when I die next month; but I should buy the extended Apple Care anyways?
A lot of cash for a laptop, especially when I have a perfectly fine one in front of my face right now...with a bigger screen, for 1/6th of the...
