MacBook pro for £899 (just saw it on their website).  squirbel's

reputable. :)  YoBob's avatar  I haven’t done it myself (but
plan to in the near future). However, I am told that you can
install Mac4Lin over the top of Linux and have yourself a Mac
equivalent. Any old crappy laptop will do and most Linux
distributions are free.  Ubuntu is a pretty darned functional
desktop system and is free. Haven’t tried Mac4Lin on top of it,
but don’t see why it wouldn’t work.  squirbel's avatar  Apple is
