I got offered a APPLE laptop, with 15.4" screen, DVD writer, and all that... ITs silver and it looks awesome.
But i have only ever used windows operated systems in my life.
Will i find it easy to use? Can i play the latest games like Fifa World Cup 2006 or Championship manager 2006?
Will all programs work?

Thank you very much in advance for all your help..

Kanzen is a product of the public school system. Give him time to google the really long and tough words.

0mega speaks the truth. Southpaw suck it, suck it dry. Public school was a mere annoyance.

Very. However don't expect it to behave like Windows. Mac OS behaves like all logic would dictate. Its a very strict and formulaic OS.

Macs are not Windows boxes. Windows software won't run on them, just like Mac software won't run on Windows. Many games are ported to the Mac. http://www.insidemacgames.com/

See above. You will be able to find an equivalent if not better solution software on Mac that you have for Windows.

OK, I SO have to disagree with this. Having done tech support for Apple, I can honestly say that neither Windows nor OS X is better. Like almost everything else, it all depends on what you plan to use the computer for. Want to play games? Stick with a PC. Plan to work with graphics or music? Go with a Mac.


And yes, Apples crash, they hang, in fact, they have a lot of the same problems as a Windows machine. Anyone who says differently, doesn't really have a Mac.
