^to the above posts, thanks for the offers but I really don't care for celeron too much either, and the T61 would be way over my budget.
Thanks for all of the replys & PMs, I have found a Powerbook g4 from a forum member and I purchased an IBM T40 on ebay.

And I won't spend extra money on another handheld when I have the iphone and it does have enough games that entertain me (in depth games too though maybe not the latest and greatest).
That's a personal choice. Your definition of in depth is subjective. Mileage may vary.
I think you miss the problem here isn't that people will pick the iphone over the handheld for gaming. Of course if they are just picking a gaming device (and they don't already have an iphone or android), they are going to pick the one designed for gaming that the games they want are coming out for. But that people who might have picked up a handheld for gaming find that the iphone or android they already have is good enough for portable gaming (in some ways better. For example since it is my cellphone, my iphone is with me everywhere so gaming anywhere I want, which is the biggest point of a handheld, it is also smaller and I don't have to carry all the games with me, they're all on my iphone so they all go with me wherever I go. Yeah, there are trade offs, on some games the controls are not as good, but here is the thing. They are good enough, at least not bad enough that I feel I need to buy another handheld just to get the better controls).
That's fine, your not/no longer a gamer. What you do is called killing time.
And here is the bigger problem, smartphones attract enough business away like this and have less people using the actual handhelds, they also attract developers. You might find new games being made for the smartphones that people can't get for the other devices as there is more money in the smartphones... and in the end, the best gaming device is the one that has the games ;).
A sad possibility. Touch will never equal tactile feedback.
Nintendo and Sony need to prove that their devices are so good that it is worth buying them *as*well* as the smartphone the person already has. Nintendo is trying with 3D. Sony is trying to have console like games in a small portable device (I'll say I'm much more interested in Sony's offerings. But I've never been impressed with nintendo's game selection except when I was really young. I really do not get the Mario love here or why people think Mario is any better than Angry Birds, they're both (at least traditional mario scrollers and the racing games) cheesy time wasters that I wouldn't say have all that much depth).
I highlighted your problem in red. This is why IOS games are good enough for you. You've lost your gamers edge. This statement alone is proof of your non gaming affiliation. Since you imply that you are 'older" perhaps you attention span for the more in depth games is just not there anymore.
Compare Angry Birds to Mario? Cheesy?
Take a look a this game list, that is the epitome of chesse: Appshopper Games (http://appshopper.com/games/)
Any 5 year old can play Angry Birds, that's the audience. How many 5 year olds can beat a Mario game?

Try deleting the backup you have now. You can do so by opening up the Preferences pane in iTunes, and going to the "Devices" tab. Then let iTunes try to make a fresh backup from scratch.

If the majority of this forum (not adressing or insulting you) would take of their Apple glasses, they would see the reality or at least the potential of the Windows Phone. I love my mac, but I am not biased to some cult.
Windows Phone launched in November, since then they managed to deliver 10k+ apps (and no, 70% of them aren't spam) ! Faster than both iOS and Android app growth rate when they launched. Of course, Microsoft needs to play catch up right now but they surely DID deliver an almost bug-free system right out the box.
Add that (apparently) they managed to sell around 600K+ phones only in February and the total is now around 2.5 million .. NOT bad for a starter, eh ?
Microsoft spent half a bilion only on advertising. They also "bought" Nokia for 1 billion. They basically bought the best hardware manufacturer (IMO, a smartphone in 2011 with a price of >400$ made of plastic is a cheap joke! No wonder about that 500$ laptop Steve quote ..) thus being able to penetrate markets worldwide much faster. Nokia is still #1 in terms of popularity at least. Agressive to say the least..
Have you actually used a WP? Every single time someone watched mine or played with it they went totally wow. Updates are coming and scheduled already.
Joe Belfiore (the "chief" of WP department) was invited to AllThingsD and while being bashed by that old man Apple fanboy he kept his calm and also stayed totally pro also providing a 2-year time to become a big player.
Android is now where it is because of the time they hit, not because of providing a better experience than iOS. They were the first to fight iOS while others were still cooking their own OS or were still using Symbian lol. It's still a laggy OS even with dual cores for crying out loud.
I am not saying WP is going to beat iOS in 2 years, no way but I see it as Microsoft most ambitious project since 360. And look where that got.
That's one way of looking at it.
Another would be that Microsoft managed to fumble away a substantial foothold in the mobile marketplace before delivering WP7, while watching Apple and Google stake their claims.

As I don't like it when people vote on polls without explaining their vote, I will.
I gave the song two stars. I liked the intro, but once the vocals kicked in, I was lost. I'm not a fan of metal, not at all. Again, I really liked the intro, just very much not the singing. (Is that even singing?)

I suppose yearly is about right, although some say more often is better. However the 2010 reviews did mention it was a silent machine, not sure if they meant that it's more silent than previous versions. I'm curious to find out if cleaning works for you and if it's indeed still not as silent as your sisters mini.

I'd say don't bother with VPC at all. But at least you have the option of using the Mac, then deciding later as well.

Hi All,
I hope this isn't "taboo" to list an auction here, but if it is and a mod wants to let me know, that's fine. I searched and found some similar posts linking to auctions, so I figured it's worth a shot.
I recently asked here for valuation tips on my Macbook combo-deal and I know this might be a bit higher than the typical going-rate on MR, I have thrown-in a retail Leopard package/etc. so maybe it's of interest to someone ;) It's in nice shape and very well cared-for (like all my toys).

Yes, i know a very quick and easy way to take mp3 files out of a youtube video. All you need is an email.
Go to www.zamzar.com
Then on the website where is says step one, click where it says url.
Copy and paste the url of the youtube video you want to extract the audio from and paste it in the open space for a link. (BE CAREFUL: make sure you delete the "http://" that is already there because you don't want it to look like "http://http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7fSFWCY0uxE")
Then where it says step 2, choose mp3, which is a bit more than halfway down the list.
For step 3, enter your email address like it says to.
Then in step 4 click convert and when the window pops up click OK.
Once you get the email go under the blue box where it says "Alternatively click on the following link to download a copy of your converted file:" and click on the link below which should take you to another window.
After you click download in the new window it will download it and it should start playing on itunes or at least will be downloaded onto your computer.

I already heard this news about AT&T... alot of sources have already reported AT&T stores won't have any iPhone 4's on launch, but my question is regarding Apple Stores. KRON reported Apple Stores won't have any available on launch day for walk-ins. I doubt this is true, but wondering if anyone else has heard this?
Yeah, Bay Area news reporting isn't always the most reliable. They too probably heard that it was the ATT stores not having the iPhones for walk-ins and got confused like everyone else and reported an incorrect story.
But hey, if people want to rely on that, get discouraged and not wait in line, more iPhones for me, bwahahhaah.
Also, Apple would have announced if they weren't going to have any devices for walk-ins.

'Painfully Slow' a relative term of course, but is correct in the fact that you will always get faster performance from native hardware.
That being said, I thin going to '98 is a good idea. Not as much Eye Candy to emulate. You probably won't feel much speed issues if you are using Excel, or Word, though those are available in OS X BTW.
But if you wish games - not a good idea. That truly is painful, and not what VPC was designed for.
Personally, I only find the need to use a PC for a few Apps like Summation, Carpe Diem, TrialMax (Legal apps), and MS Project (though FastTrack 8 is OS X native)
What softwares do you need VPC to run?
