The problem with you guys is you haven't got a state of the art Packard Bell, 133mhz Pentium 1 processor, 2mb of Shared video from a total of 16mb of RAM AND a 14.4k modem on a dial up like I have.

Apparently it's a American Trend , put something that's a bit controversial like " Gullible is not in The Dictionary " on about religion and get 2434 comments with all the comment posters at each other's throats .
I got P****d about with PCs so I got a 2001 Apple I-mac which was a ex-publisher's design Computer off the Car Boot . State of the art specifications then!-IBM/MOTOROLA G3 350MHZ 0.7 Gig Processor, 128mb memory , 7 GB Harddrive ATI Ragepro 8MB Graphics Card. Macs are deliberately underclocked to keep them quiet and cool , people do overclock them to do games but it's dangerous and the warranty would be void .
First thing it didn't take up much room on the desk nor did it make a row . I'd more knowledgeable mates check it over , the CRT was good , hadn't been used much . They liked the Operating System OS9 1999/2000!, the graphics , the software ,3D Desktop , 1024 X 768 Resolution, though it was slow , it was basically a good computer . Got some memory modules off E-bay cheap , there's a slot on the back to put them in so 512mb memory. Won Mac Jaguar OSX 10.2 on E-bay , had to pray that it'd install and boot up as it was for a I-book lap-top as Macs can be fussy. I got books from the Library . I liked all the I-Tunes etc but the modem was " relatively " more modern 56K and it didn't like Cable .
The brother used Macs in Bio-Chemistry and spent a fortune on a white Macbook , at first he thought what the **** have I spent all this money on a computer but soon realised why . I absolutely scraped the money together to buy a Intel I-mac and I absolutely love it !, Cable's £10 a month & I'd live on Beans on Toast to pay the Broadband Bill . The CRT I-mac is at my Dad's to do Mail-order and light surfing . A Few of my mates want one off E-bay but one said he'd have to bid for Body Armour and Industrial Strength Ear Protectors as his Missus would give him absolute hell what with the crockery and pots and pans aimed in his direction!.
