so.
i decided to completely dump windows and every other microsoft product i use [mainly just windows and msn] about a month or two ago, and switch in full to linux. i was running windows 2000 pro, installed mandrake 10.3 or something that i already had on cd, it failed, two weeks later, i get ubuntu on cd and do a clean install.
two problems; i can't change my screen res to anything larger than 1024x768 [which is really pissing me off], and my wireless card isn't supported. i know ways around that, but with the recent wwdc a month ago and keynote today, a mac desktop is looking more and more appealing. i'm writing this from a [now outdated] ibook which i used for about a year before getting a custom built pc which i recently killed with linux.
i have this delicious large monitor that i'd like to keep, so right now it seems like my only option would be to get a custom mac mini. should i do it?
