i finally got myself a macbook! went for the white one... 2GB 667 DDR2 - 2x1GB SO-DIMMs 120GB Serial ATA drive (5400rpm) 2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Absolutely love it!!! Now i am wanting to get the creative suite (photoshop, illustrator etc) but does anybody know somewhere that is slightly cheaper than £829? Not a student at the minute - on a gap year so will be in september - is it worth waiting until then? thanks
It's worth waiting regardless of price - CS3 is due out later this year (I think...), and runs about five times faster than CS2 does on the Intel machines, not to mention some great new features. Anyways, welcome to the club, and enjoy that machine
you can download the beta of cs3 for free right now from the adobe website. should do you fine until the final version comes out
wow thaks guys i'm gonna look for it right now!! and yes it is soooo worth the money! i was lucky enough to get it right after tey changed the standard spec to a higher one! but i still went for the bigger memory and hard drive
hey congrats on the macbook, have you used macs before or is it your first delve into apple? glad to see you didn't go for the black model (dont get fooled into thinking you pay for quality witht the black macbook!)
well i've used them before at college etc but this is the first i've owned found the link for getting the cs3 beta version but its asking for macromedia or adobe id... how do i get this? thanks
It's only available to people with a valid CS2 license. Well, I use the term "valid" very loosely , but if you're going to buy a copy of CS3 when it comes out (versus buying CS2 now and then paying another $150-200 or so to upgrade it), I wouldn't be overly concerned about using a somewhat questionable method to hold you over.
Iirc, they offer a two day trial to anyone. You can use certain 'methods' to make the trial last forever. Not that I would condone such a thing...
