Once you go Mac there’s no going back. Serious I switched from Dell around 2009 and just got used to not having to replace the hardware every 2 or 3 years. I still have the 2009 MacBook Pro and with a couple of upgrades it’s still going strong. . You do still want newer kit though Oh and I do still have a Windows 10 lappy and desktop kicking around although I haven’t turned them on in months. If it weren’t for all the old documents I have in Microsoft Office format, my mums sermons and such I probably would have got rid.

That's what I've always used Dave, after 20 odd years I've come to the conclusion that they don't last long .

We were on the ferry...the two lady's in the back of me started laughing...I almost got caught taking the picture...lol....

The only time I ever bought anything on interest was my XL185 in 1980, I wouldn't get the credit as I have a zero score

You took a photo of a random guys butt crack?

You need to get her under control, tell her she needs to do as she is told. She will totally appreciate it.

Boom, right through the ugly flat window.

Ewe,

Not sure who it was ...probably a plumber ?

Yeah, get that. my misses has just ordered a bloody dell with an intel. There’s no tellin em.

So you took a photo of Dans butt crack?

I not anti the Intel Macs its just in Lappy's they have limited battery life and crappy speakers. Work just fine. My Mac Mini is intel as is my Macbook Pro. Plus the Apple Silicon ones scorch them in terms of performance. And yes my desk is a tip.

Apple offer 0% interest if that interests you, I know I'll get me coat

That's a very good deal, looking at it in detail.

Sorry, but I need to vent!!!! I experienced the WORST customer service today at a local store. I don't want to mention the name of the store because I'm not sure how I'm going to handle this. Last night I bought something from this store and I paid cash for it. I took it home and found out it didn't work. So today, less than 24 hours later I took it back to the same store and asked if I could get a refund. The cashier told me “NO” even though I still had the receipt. I asked if I could get a replacement instead, again she told me "NO." I asked to talk to a manager as we Karen's do..... now as I'm really not happy and I explained that I had just bought the item, had got it home and it didn't work. The manager just smiled and told me to straight to my face that I was "OUT OF LUCK." No refund. No FREE replacement. Grrrrrrrrr. I''ll tell you what...I am NEVER buying another Lottery Ticket from there again.

Nope and Nope, to old won't run the latest Mac OS and overpriced IMHO. Also that generation Macbooks won't have the battery life of a M Apple Silicon one. One of the reasons to stay away from Intel macs is the processors run hot so need a fan running which munches through the battery in 2 to 3 hours. Thats often the case with New PC laptops even now. Apple Silicon Macs will run up to 18 hours sometimes more on one charge, no fan, negates the need to carry a charger with you. Also they have much better speakers. This is a good deal. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/157278537481?_trkparms=amclksrc%3DITM%26aid%3D1110006%26algo%3DHOMESPLICE.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D291640%2C291402%26meid%3Dcaf20adcd0004a1daf38545f84d074cd%26pid%3D101875%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D4%26sd%3D157278531467%26itm%3D157278537481%26pmt%3D1%26noa%3D0%26pg%3D2332490%26algv%3DSimVIDwebV3WithCPCExpansionEmbeddingSearchQuerySemanticBroadMatchSingularityRecallReplaceKnnV4WithVectorDbNsOptHotPlRecallCIICentroidCoviewCPCAutoEnabledCassiniRecallCache%26brand%3DApple&_trksid=p2332490.c101875.m1851&itmprp=cksum%3A157278537481caf20adcd0004a1daf38545f84d074cd|enc%3AAQAKAAABkFFq%2Fq3EDGh0yHpGYYMHul3ouffnB39iSruwTx8%2BJH9NEsRp%2BPTrrxcWMxtbVqGeID1hUP%2BoWQJ1jy%2B3PnimyU1zvH8E6ZtiOs14nVQCY9knA4bd4YwHmVAvg7I0w3jDPEgWZFuTxGPgBykA166XBmbaWOg9%2Fc8S6LzdxDn4CxI9AZ1oVZLWZKpxoL7ZxKj0IgVQ2vYYE3NJdqIDKpvVNWFNOKzebvIPQRSkPrN7UESUCTW%2FL0aBBwq9j98dxExwoqyzaDx1gldu3cJJY%2BbVaeyM%2FolTc626OWZxfNLsTZ69yASgiqQ6qNeh%2BFmyUwLK%2Fk0FZeOt2Tw8mIb94w56wi1EItvQWrHU9Rz3L876wfzLeXbm9zQbSfbSQ26f2gpZN5lD7xd5qSzJauoDmahREH7Jkc83KcjDrhBiEq4SFnY8Fxw1rf%2B0%2FHK2%2FnH8shgaT22a1bkJcILKVReC%2Bw0Oy2BUT4SXoJ5%2Bm%2BvVB9%2B%2FDg2lhaogRjh%2FVsqW5ZgPYJFdlBQxn9w4bv%2Fmu58oN2S502g%3D|ampid%3APL_CLK|clp%3A2332490&epid=12054573521&itmmeta=01K3RVP1HRT7S1VS8QFSBBW5FE Put it in a case and you would never see the marks on it plus a guarantee. £300 to £400 would get you a decent usable M1 but obviously will be used. I looked in Currys today and they are doing brand New M4 Macbook Airs for £850 which is a good deal.

Here's and early butt crack for you Ian...lol

How about one from ramsgate.

My 27in 2017 intel iMac’s been pretty bullet proof too. Had to do a reinstall recently which was fairly easy being OS but think the Fusion H drive is on the way out. Got it all backed up so not any real prob.

Avoid them, you don't want an intel processor.

What do you think of these two offerings .......... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/177292484809 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/177292580218

Thanks for the replies. I certainly don't have enough money to buy new so I'm looking at second hand lap top at the moment .
