Hi All,
I'm Lexa, new on this side of the forum (been on the french side a few years now). But I moved to brighton and just got a new Macbook. Enough with boring stories, let's get to the point: What website do english people use to get mac accessories such as Hard drive enclosures and stuff? I ran a search but did find anything relevant. I'm sure you guys can point me in the right direction. Oh, while I'm at it, the thing I'm looking for is a HD enclosure for using my Powerbook's Hard drive. I need firewire as I might use it as Clone host. Many thanks in advance Cheers English Bidouilleurs! PS: will sort out avatar and stuff soon. |

hi there lexa!
for me, i would browse at the usual macsales.com and my current local computer stores. for hdds, enclosures and parts. i will check out newegg.com, outpost.com, frys.com and there's the pretty niffy site called dealmac.com i think. wiebetech.com has some premium offerings too. |

Hahaha, funney enough, I had to wake up at 11 on a hangover to get my broadband stuff from the post office. I hit a carboot sales on the way back, and after a real random wander, I found a set of screw drivers for computer.... at least i got this sorted!
a bit off topic, but I felt like sharing |
