If you’re going to be a CIS major you’ll want a good PC. Visual Studio is a resource HOG. If this is your career path and you can’t afford a real good PC you should probably sell the Mac and use that money to get a real good PC.

Good example, my dev box here at work has 3 gig of ram, and my laptop is a 2ghz pmobile with a gig of ram. VS 2005 Pro is much happier on my desktop, but runs ok on the laptop.

i don’t mind a little delay on visual studio. rubicant is hooking me up with a good enough system. i currently run it on my gf’s super shitty computer. it runs like shit, but it does it enough to get me by. i hear what you are saying about needing a good PC. i’m going to step it up a notch when the refund check comes next semester with a solid PC. i’ve entertained the idea of selling my iBook, but i really like it for day to day use and for my other classes. i will keep it, get this computer off of matt, and get a baller PC next semester.

EDIT: that sounds like a pretty sick setup that you have.
