peepa123 Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Hi, I am in the market for a new notebook.. Can anyone tell me a good notebook (with dedicated decent graphics in the range of Radeon 3650/Nvidia 9600M GT) and a fast core 2 duo processor (1066 Mhz FSB ones) which works with OS X fully.. QE/CI, Audio, and Wifi must work.. LAN is expendable.. I dont have so much dosh as to buy a MBP so please dont suggest that.. and a MB is too underpowered in terms of graphics for me.. thanks..

Synaesthesia Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 I don't know, depends where you live? Do you stay in the USA? If so, you can get a cheap Dell 1390 wireless card on ebay.
