Only thing to say IMO "Once you"ve had a MAC there"s no going back"... to windows that is. If your fav site insists on the Windows stuff install Parallels and it still runs faster than most average PC"s.

I know they are more dosh but everything just works trust me.... Oh if you know anyone at Uni they can get upto 20% discount through those nice apple peeps Education arrangement (must be ordered off UNI Intranet).


In addition software for students is the dog"s  8) even if you have a student in your household (school, college or uni) nice discounts

I"m a bit late on this one, but I bought a new computer a few months ago. A desk-top, mind, but for just over £500 I got 4mb RAM, I5 3.30 GB processor and a massive 21.5 inch monitor!

I got it from a small company called ARBICO in South London because it came top of all the surveys.

It"s amazing what you can get for £500. Why does anyone spend more?

Bit beside the point though as 4GB is WAY more than you"d need just to play poker. 1 will be plenty.


I have 2GB and run Win7, and my laptop runs pretty slow when I have 2/3 clients open with 4+ tables in play, and PokerTracker importing, chrome, livemail, etc etc etc....  am considering upgrading to 4gb




What processor has it got? Have you looked at how much memory you"re actually using? None of those should be hogging it so upgrading may make little difference. I run pretty much the same with 2gb and it"s more than enough. Depends what the etc"s are!
