why that was nice

[bball09124 10+ year member]

I've got a Mac and split time between it and Firefox. They have a lot of similarities, but each one has something the other doesn't.

Same for me.

I used Safari in the beginning when I first switched to Mac but now I just use Firefox.

I did that too, but firefox did me dirty a few nights ago when it didn't download all the pics in a thread....

i like it.

Maybe i will buy a mac when its time for a new computer.

I almost bought one last time, but i got sick of waiting for leopard to come out and just bought a xps instead.

A 2E was my first computer.. stayed with macs until like early 90's... but my last one, a performa 630cd, basically sucked ***.. crashed all the time and i spent more time reinstalling OS than i did actually using the thing. After that i maded the switch to PC...

Perhaps its time to return home after all these years...

The Apple Macintosh Performa 630 (CD) (PC) features a 33 MHz 68LC040 processor, 4 MB or 8 MB of RAM, and a 250 MB hard drive in a compact desktop case. The Performa 630CD shipped with a 2X CD-ROM drive

With specs like these, its hard to imagine why i hated the thing..

Don't you already carry a laptop with you everywhere you go? Why do you need a second device that performs computer functions like voip?

I do have a 12" laptop that i carry a lot, but not all the time. Especially in the summer when its too hot to leave it in a car. Plus like if i just want to google something or respond briefly in an email, something like a touch would be easier to get out and use for just a sec.

I did decided tho.... and just ordered a 16g gig touch. I figure 16gig is enough.. it wasnt worth the extra $150 for the 32gig... at least to me.. and $475 just seems like too much money for a freakin mp3 player.. no matter how rad it is.

hmm well considering i dont own a car atm.. and wont for at least a year... HU support doesn't concern me.
besides I never had a problem with using aux in with my zune. I had a charger that held the zune right next to the steering where where i could reach it to change tracks without having to move my hand off the wheel and i could adjust the volume with the steering wheel volume control in my car.

its really all about the extras.

being able to watch streaming TV on a touch sounds quite interesting

you should leave this forum.

Black 30 gig zune

**

Home dock, remote, AC adapter, RCA cable

**

belkin tunebase fm modulator/charger/dock for the car.

In addition to the FM modulator feature, there is a 3.5mm AUX out on the tunebase which i used to directly wire into a HU. I really liked this thing because it held the zune in place, charged, kept the screen on, and could be easily seen.

There is a screen protector on the zune as well.

It has about 27 gigs of music on it at the moment, which i can leave or erase.

$150 shipped priority mail, with delivery confirmation and $200 worth of insurance.

ya very true, but i should have specified: i was talking about a laptop.

I wouldn't buy a desktop from any manufacture.

They are too fun and easy to put together.

you should **** my tasty and pretty balls and i just might.

i haven't come here for car audio related shit in several years and i don't really ever leave the lounge.

I would get a touch. But either is cool. Some of the touch features are useful if you acually use them like wifi and safari and all of that.

I'll sell you mine. 16 gig, jailbroken, has all the nintendo games on it already. I never pulled the plastic off the face so when you do it looks brand new. Back looks great too. It comes in a hard plastic case that was taking all of the scuffs. Also comes with an extended warranty through Walmart.

Edit: Didn't see that you already ordered one.
