Somebody is spoiled. I worked my butt off when I was that young to get my current machine. Probably why I still own it.

Thanks, I try to keep my stuff all neat and tidy. I also don't like to spend too much money, as I'm lazy, and jobs can be hard to come by.
I can't believe that some of the people here have the computers they do. You are all spoiled rotten!!!

I wouldn't say I'm spoilt. I only got my own computer this year, I used to share a PowerBook G4. Also I paid for the desk, lamp and chair and for half the iPhone.

With money from a job, selling things people gave you, or with money they gave you?

I can see mezmerize is trolling this too 🙁
It seems no surprise to me that parents would help their kids buy computers, seems the right thing to do to me. To some, $2000 might not be that much to have a laptop (and the parents themselves probably have nice ones). To others, they might be going with $300 walmart hardware, different story.
The triple head G5 setup blows me away, and the TiBook maniac setup is pretty damn cool too, plus there's a lot of very tastefully done ones in between.
I dunno, mez how would you feel if you were able to get a Mac Pro right now with a 30", on the condition that 8 years later you'd still be using that machine daily as your main desktop.
Been there and done that, with a G4 anyway. 😀 It was ok, and I did some pretty amazing stuff with that machine.

Well, you can get money helping your folks at home or so. And extra, just because you got yours by doing something, doesn't mean everyone's experience will be the same. I paid for my Mac and pretend on keeping it for a long time. But I have nothing against parents buying their kids stuff. Especially when they do their job well, studying their butts off and working to be someone in life.

All of the above. I did some odd jobs like car cleaning for a year. Plus my MBP has to last me at least to 2016, so I'm set fir the next 6 years.
And your signature has more stuff including an iPad, Time Capsule, and appleTV. And you're 12.

They're not mine, simply things I use. My Dad bought them all. We share the iPad with him, me and my brother.
Dude that docking system looks really cool for your iPhone. Where did you get it from?
Lego is awesome though. Used to be my favourite toy before all the sets became really expensive

I am 14, and Lego's still are my favorite. 😀
And YEAH! They are getting expensive. A small airplane for $40. Wow.
