Apple Mac Mechanic

[dawnrazor]

Anyone know any Apple Mac Techies, that charge resonable rates in jafaville?

I know Apple Mac and Reasonable Rates are an oxymoron, but hey thought someone may have a contact!

the guys iat magnum macs in newton are decent and do good work, sorted me out when ever I've had any probs.

Those of the PC community only make disparaging remarks as they really want to move to the other side but are too sacred to

Not to mention they won't have anything to do.

No removing viruses every weekend!

No updating to version 365.234!


No pulling this out and putting that in to make it go faster, bigger better!
Apple gives you more time to ride...........

lol the reason peeps dont upgrade MAC's is that there are no worth while app's to run onit, never found a decent gamer/programmer using a Mac tbh...

Fook me and you guys take the piss out of Honda's.....Stop using Macs first ..

People in greenhouses and all that ...

90% of the publishing industry and a big % of academia would argue. Horses for courses.

True, but publishers are social missfits and academia ...Dont get me started on that lot, they are so far removed from society that they wouldnt have a clue if it hit 'em on the head...hence why they use Mac's.

But, your generally right Horses 4 Pukey ....Oops I mean courses.

People who deal with big rows of numbers or code or 'systems' people tend to favour the Windows way - creatives tend to identify better with the mac gui.

You can't tinker under the hood on a mac nearly as much as a dos box. This may be a disadvantage for often repetitve work - many of the creatives that use macs start with a blank page most times anyway.

Blank page - I tend to have a blank expression

Ah that is truly the Golden Fleece you seek.

that was true with sys 9 BD, but with OSX being a glossy cap over UNIX,
there plenty of tinkering available for the geekily endowed.

I stand corrected.

I never embraced resedit or scripting anyway.

Far more apps-centric. I love solving them - flash and 3d and video packages have always been like big jig saw puzzles. How the pieces are made never appealed.

I have to agree, Magnum Mac are pretty good, however they are certainly not cheap?

Was hoping to find someone a little more user freindly price wise

[bugjuice]

you know apple have a good support section on the site that tells you how to do stuff like swap the HD etc..? I'm sure BC has explained it all, it's not hard. Just find a new one to replace it with, try to back up as much as poss onto CD (or external drive) and replace it.. eaaaaasy.
or if you need a hand, shout.. someone must be near by..

BD, completely confused

Situation normal.

funny how this arguement just goes on... and on... and on...

meanwhile us mac'es just smile politely while the PC's crash and carryon working, cos we can

waaaaaaahhhhh I wanna mac at home.... sick of my fkn Pc crashing for inexplicable reasons.. one of those nice new shiny iMacs or even a Macbook pro would be dandy
