Hello MacRumors!
I'm soon going to be in High School and I'm looking for a computer that will last me a good long time. Currently, I'm on a PC, and here is what I do:
Edit and Produce videos on Movie Maker (a god awful program I should note)
Burn DVDs of my work (above)
Use Audacity to edit *.mp3s
Use Office 2003 for Word, PowerPoint, Publisher, and Excel
And, of course, I use Firefox, AIM, etc;
I don't play games (including Vista ) and use XP.
So, my price range is > $1,100 so I'm looking at the Refurbished in the iMac and MacBook Section.
What do you think is right for me? I want a computer that will last a good 4 or 5 years.
Please post what you think I should do...
Thanks,
