Thumbs up I nabbed me another switcher!

I just got a good friend of mine to drop $4000 on a new PowerMac system.... a Dual 1.25 (new) with a 20" Apple Display & Some extra RAM....

He's stoked! He has his old Dull PIII with Windows 98me and plans on donating it to his church (if they'll t take it!)


He is totally impressed with his new set up and even went and splurged on Cable modem services to make best use of it!

Welcome John V.

Congrats man!! I've been working on my dorm roommate since august and it seems he's finally thinking about switching on his next purchase. His computer crashes at least once a day and he's sick of me laughing at him everytime.

Let's keep the mac movement goin!

I've got a guy in the works on a 12" right as we speak... he's a Gateway PIII guy with winblows XP and he says he spends more time troubleshooting his pc than using it... so he wants to get a laptop, and a Mac is in first place right now (thanks to me!)
