Managed to get a fairly nice deal on a Macbook pro after my local Apple store did me a massive favour.
Basicly back in September I got an iPad for Uni thinking it would be fine to take notes on, then go back home and do any more significant tasks on my home PC.
Turned out to be a lot more fuss than it was worth to use. Multitasking was just horrible, a lot of the lecture halls didn't have little desks to prop it up on and If I ever did have a short day and wanted to stay in the library to do some work I was pretty stuck. After 40 days of owning it I went into the Apple store to see what they could do seeing as their return policy is 14 days.
The bloke there was real nice about it and let me get a full refund of store credit. Seeing as I now had £400 to spend in the Apple store and was now in search of a laptop I decided to get my first mac. Picked up the 13" 2.9Ghz i7 model for £675 with the money from the iPad.
So far liking it a lot which is surprising as I told my self since I was little I would never buy a Mac XD.
(p.s. Sorry for crappy phone quality)
