Its worth the price

Common , Core Duo...OSX , well you can't beat the PowerPC Chip...I seriously have no mode of getting Intel Macs...PowerPC Chip {risc} is much more better.....

BTW , I can play WoW fine on my 1.07Ghz iBook G4 and even on my 256MB RAM of Mac Mini (Both are using ATI Readon 9200 , of course the lappie using Mobility Radeon 9200). As for the battery life , iBook still 'pawns'. Since you play DOTA only , no problem..I suggest not to get the iBook Intel , you might lose out the dedicated graphics card , instead you would get a cheap Intel Graphics card which shares memory with the RAM [ yuck] and no FireWire port [double yuck]

Oh , by the way , Office:mac is 50x much more better then Office 2003 for Windows.Seriously , its soo much soo easier to use...I can still play KOTOR , and many other games on my mac...No problem with DOTA on WiFi. Oh yes , speaking of WiFi...Airport Card..it pawns...seriously..it could pick up the weakest wifi signal...Do a google search and you would be amazed

BTW..Acer stay ........from them..If you want a good lappie go with IBM..of course it would not be a gaming laptop

I am just thinking why....Acer lappie so cheap..my friends lappie [Toshiba] (dont really know what series) , the one which has 7800 nVida graphics card , really pawns....Seriously , it costed him nearly RM 12k (now thats a real 'gaming' laptop)

Well dont compare RISC/CISC processor....I still love the PowerPC Chip no matter what [thats why I got the mac...]...Well I do agree on the other hand , Core Duo [2 processors] does speed things up , if you're using Photoshop and stuff like that. But for simple web browsing , a game of dota , and creating excel workbook..A simple G4 would be enough
