Alright, it seems like one thing after another is going wrong with my desktop (in my sig). Right now it is down and I have been using my laptop (currently in sig) for about a week now and to tell you the truth the only thing i miss from my desktop is the storage space (2x 200gb and 1x80gb for the OS).
My question is:
I can get a
For $1099 refurb from the apple store right now.
My plan would be to get external enclosures for my 2x 200gb drives and always leave them plugged in and just sitting on the corner of my desk or whatever, continue to use my mx518, keyboard, and 22" monitor when in my dorm room.
Would that setup be fine for everyday use? I am a CS major and need to run eclipse (or whatever else) for Java programming, and some sort of c++ compiler, other than that my main uses for my computer are light photoshop work, Adobe lightroom work, office/email/web surfing and once in a while dvd ripping / burning.
as far as gaming goes, I am down to about an hour a week and I don't really care about it like I used to, so no gaming performance is needed right now.
Thanks guys, I want to order it tonight, i am just so sick of my desktop
