New Comp Consideration
Sooo I've been thinking about a new computer for a quite a while, and my 'rents said they'd get one around Christmas. I'm planning to buy Cataclysm the day it comes out (okay, maybe not THE day, but maybe I'll pre-order it for once. Because I want goblins so bad! And I don't want a scenario where at last I hit 80 and everyone's already 85.) ANYWAYS, the point is that I need a comp that can possibly run it (without knowing the exact requirements, but I figure I can ballpark it). And I've been dawdling on comp websites for a while, and I think one of the best deals out there is probably a MacMini.
Deals specific to me, which is that I need something I can carry by myself when I move over relatively long distances. So anything that's a full-size tower is kinda undesirable (or any monstrosities that people build). It also needs to be powerful enough to, well, run Cataclysm, and theoretically not crash in Dalaran/WG/Whatever main city Cataclysm has, but that might be asking too much. I've been so set on getting a PC because I thought Macs are too expensive, that I totally forgot there's the option of Mini. The only thing I need to buy that's extra if I get a Mini is a keyboard, and those come cheap, even wireless ones. There just aren't any Dell comps that "wowed" me, ya know? (Mainly because they come with shitty video cards, and if I buy a better video card I might as well buy a Mac because it's all built-in and pretty.)
