Hi Mac users i have just got a white macbook late 2010 model (2gb ram,250gb and 2.4ghz)

I have discovered apples generous side and have received a FREE £35 gift voucher and have additional £15 pocket money to put towards it, I also have a gift card worth £40 for a uk shop called game (i plan on selling this)

so i would like a list of accessories that have a total value of £50
and i would like a separate list with a total value of £90

Note1: it MUST be from this shop http: //www.squaregroup.co.uk/store.php as this is where the £35 is only valid at.Having said that i need to use the £35 at square but i could spend the other money at http://www.apple.com/uk/https:// however i would prefer KRCS as that and Square group is my only accessible official Apple retailer http://www.krcs.co.uk/shop

Note 2:Correct/advise as much as you want on this thread but please do not shout or call me a stupid little 13Yr old...I'm 13 but I'm not stupid.

Help is appreciated

Edit: sorry about the long type up not exactly that good at making a long story short

First off, all 13 year olds are stupid, now "GET OFF MY LAWN!!!" :p Just Kidding.

Haha as i started to read the start of your comment i was a bit worried as to what kid of website i had subscribed to...opinion changed now. :p to you to

Back to Mac now : thanks for the help but at the moment i do not use enough memory to require an external hard drive (however i will bear it in mind when the time comes for one)

And as for the sleeve i would not dream of taking it to school (not until 6th form anyway) and if i did ever take it to a friends house i would put it in my relatively padded DC satchel bag having said that if i do not manage to sell my Game voucher a sleeve will be on my top priority.

If you have the time would anyone mind checking this website to see if they have anything i could use because i'm not to sure about compatibility (anything accept a sleeve because i know about that and i do not want any special gaming mouses/keyboards)

If I were to only buy one thing.. it would be an external harddrive to work with TimeMachine. I've lost count of the number of times I've had to rescue laptops that weren't ever backed up.. if data is important to you (and I'm sure you'll have things on your laptop you'd never want to lose) then get it backed up regularly :)

Some things I would pick up (I know some have been listed):
External Drive for backing up your computer. Protective Sleeve. I have a incase backpack but still use a incase sleeve just to be safe. If you have a nice LCD TV I would recommend buying a DVI connector and then a DVI to HDMI so you can watch videos from your macbook onto your LCD.
