I've been using a 22" mac for the last few months and do not like it at all.

Windows 8 is apparently a lot faster than 7 (real people reports, not Microsoft marketing), So I would rather have a same spec as the mac, but 2/3rds of the cost, or same price but much better specs.

I could go into a rant about what grates me about them but don't want to bore you. All I can think as to why people like macs is because they are shiney shiney.

 

Have you maxxed out your ram, you can do it yourself all instructions are on the apple site, also windows 8 is only for touch screens!

Ram isn't the issue with ours.

 

And windows 8 isn't just for touchscreens - there is a proper desktop/start menu etc. Also they are doing a deal where you can upgrade to windows 8 pro for £20 if you have 7.

If you want a laptop, get the 15" and buy one a fast a you can afford

I had issues running lion for a while and I found a solution. It was a bit complicated but worked and it all ran perfectly. If you want I can send you a pm with the link later

That's the thing, the OS is running fine performance wise, I just don't like it. thanks all the same for the offer.

Can't wait to use a mouse with two buttons on it again
