New MacBook?
« on: September 21, 2018, 07:41:17 AM »
My grandson, the youngest one, said that he wants a MacBook for school. He is science/math kid mostly, but will have to do a lot of writing also.
His physics teacher recommended a MacBook. So we are going to drive over to our little local independent Mac store after school this afternoon.
He chose the 13 inch MacBook Pro 2.3Hz.
Its around $2000 once I get a printer and other stuff added up.
Thinking this will be sufficient. He has several PC machines which he has put together and uses them for gaming sometimes and photoshop and fun stuff. Plans to use one of those big ones to store all his stuff on, and just use the little one for current stuff.

(He also wants a car, but he has a nice little motorboat.) But there is a difference between want and need. The computer is a need, the car is a want. Tho he has a good job at the local marina across the way from our house.
