I did it. I took the Dive. I bought a Mac.

After seeing that in a zillion years I could never afford the MacPro with Xeon processors, I settled on a 20 inch iMac with 2 gigs of ram, a 250 gig HD, And a superdrive. That Hd, I plan to partition and load XP on the other half. That’s half the battle.

First, I must take my Pre-SP2 copy of XP-Pro and slipstream service pack 2 on to it. Then burn it to a CD. Then try and install iit with BootCamp.

I feel the weight of the $1600 on me like a rock. I just need to take this new hardware and work some extra jobs.

Question for Mac heads. I did not buy the AppleCare plan.. I have 1 year until the default waranty runts out. Is it really worth it? Should I buy that 3 years that will cost like $300 to cover the hardware and display?

Fred,

I wish I could help you, but my technical expertise is limited. As a lifelong Mac person, though, I wish you much luck. When I buy the same machine next year, I will probably look to you for advice.
