Not sure what your return policy is, but check it out. Might have 30 day satisifaction etc where you can return it...minus shipping. Mac's wouldn't crash or have compatibility issues as much as pc's, but software is more limited and its a slightly different layout. I build my own so I rarely deal with all that BS of prebuilt stuff thats going to take a crap all the time. (well, mostly!) /evil eye EVGA Mb! But bios update fixed most of it with some tweaks.
