Seems like most of my friends who have Apple laptops have had a logic board failure at one point or another. If you do buy the Mac, get an extended warranty and you should be OK. OS X is really, really nice, but it sounds like you plan to run Linux on it anyway, so that doesn't really enter the picture. |
