So you're talking about a complete desktop replacement? I couldn't justify buying that laptop when you could get a windows laptop with the same specifications for a lot less money.

agreed. you can get an asus that's just as fast, powerful, and capable, if not moreso, for like 500-1000 less.

like this one.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834220216

same processor, same graphics card, same amount of ram, same size screen, 200 gig HDD (rather than 160), AND it's $580 less.

Fuck the macbook haters. It's a bit more expensive yes, but you're getting a product a thousandfold better. Forget crashes and forget viruses. After a little getting used to you'll realize this is the way laptops were supposed to be all along.

:rolleyes:  a thousandfold, i'm sure.  look, i'm not hating on macbooks.  i know, in general, they're good machines.  but fuck paying $600 more for one, when i can get the same specs and then some in an asus.  a lot of stuff can be bought for $600.  you could get two more gigs of very good ram ($145), a 1 TERABYTE external HDD ($240 after mail-in rebate) and still have $200 to spare.

granted, it comes with windows vista installed, so it'd probably be worth your while to get an efficient *pirated* copy of XP, but regardless.  i dunno.  maybe i'm just too concerned with prices.

yeah, get the mac book pro, great machine. i am actually in class on mine right now, started bringing it this semester. although i would have to agree that if you just want to use it as a portable and not your primary computer, get something cheaper.

OSX is way better than windows, but you can still use windows if you install bootcamp. Team Fortress 2 runs fantastic on it... not that i play it every day or anything, heh.
