10 pages of notes per class by hand really suck?

sorry i'm new to this site but here's my question on this topic...

i'm thinking of switching from a desktop to a laptop come september!

but from a PC to a MAC

is it worth it when I already have a dell flat screen/keyboard/mouse?

(i also have a toshiba 27" lsd flat screen tv)

if i got a PC laptop would i have to get dell to match what other stuff for home use?

because if went with a MAC i'd have to get all new stuff...

KEEP IN MIND........... there is NOTHING WRONG MY PC!

i just got in december 2006 but i want to get a laptop because my first year of uni without one kinda killed me


Um...you can buy either a PC laptop or a Macbook without having to buy anything else. Both can be connected to your current monitor by means of a VGA or DVI connection. There's no matching of brands necessary.

I don't think you can use Logitech keyboards lets say with Macs can you? I thought you have to use Mac branded peripherals?

And LMAO to 27" LSD hahaha, that's a lot of drugs

Uhh...you can because I'm currently typing on it atm (Logitech Wireless Wave). Some keyboards are fully detected and work normally, while some are detected but extra functions (such as Logitech's F-Function keys or Microsoft's shortcuts) won't work.
