You can find the apple tests at their site or go around inderpendent hardware sites.

£1556 is including VAT

And why dont you actually try using MAC OSX before you blast it, it may not have a wide range of software but with the inbuilt componants of mac osx you dont need it

I can edit movies, make dvd menus and burn a dvd, buy and burn music, surf the net with a effective firewall and no fear of viruses, store photographs in a computer album that allows serchs, slideshows etc etc, of course i can voice chat as all powerbooks come with inbulit mic, sync my contacts with my phone, use a far superior email client to the IE one, oh calender, pdfs read with any programs, quicktime is great, I can play dvds without additonal software
So er .. do you want to tell me something you can do that I can't do under windows? I can edit movies, I can make DVD menu's, I can burn DVD's, buy and burn music, I surf the net with a better firewall than you have, and it's not OS dependent, who give's a sh*te about a gimmicky gallery? (not me, that's for sure), you can voice chat? oooooh, nearly EVERY laptop comes with a mike and inbuilt speakers, I sync my contacts with my phone using a £2.50 bluetooth dongle, a calender? Outlook 2003 works perfectly, you should try it, PDF's read with any programs? Huh? I can read PDF's with Photoshop, Acrobat Reader (free), or plenty of other free PDF tools, quicktime? Don't make me laugh! I'd rather install AOL that QT.
