                          IMO, if you want the best quality on the market, you have no choice but to go with the macbook pro. however, if you are not already a mac person, you need to consider your colleagues and clients and cross platform issues you may encounter. i have been a mac person for years, but everyone i work with is mac-illiterate. i am generally able to address the issues that arise (some file naming conventions, occasional file format issues, and MAJOR software differences), so it's not a problem for me. things have gotten better between the two, but microsoft is starting to cut off support for mac apps (they will NOT release another version of internet explorer for mac). once you are educated, there are few issues, but be prepared for a rocky start if you're new to Mac OS........

                          i say mac all the way, but like rim jobs, they're not for everyone and sometimes you have to explain it to the person you're with. but i love 'em both.

                              Wouldn't a dual core cpu suck a lot more battery than a single core cpu on a laptop? I personally would be more interested in battery time than cpu power on a laptop.

                                  you won't regret a MacBook Pro

                                  Powered by a dual-core Intel engine. Up to four times the speed of the PowerBook G4. Eight times the graphics bandwidth. With built-in iSight for instant video conferencing on the move. And Front Row with Apple Remote to dazzle everyone in the room. Wait no more. MacBook Pro starts at just $1999.

                                          I am a Mac user. Switched from PCs almost 2 years ago. I love Macs much better.

                                          BUT... I've heard reports that software hasn't yet caught up with the new Intel Powered Macs. In some cases they run slower than their PC counterparts. My cousin (Tiffany Paris) purchased the new iMac running the Intel processor. In many cases, it's blazingly fast. But in others it's slower.

                                          The good news is that software will come full circle and take advantage of the new benefits offered by the Intel powered machines. If you're willing to wait for that, go with the MacBook. DON'T go with the PC. Read post #7 too. There are some very valid points made there. You'll be frustrated for a few weeks as you learn to do things a better way.

                                                  As fellow content providers I can tell you how to get the best out of your Macs. You'll love them once you're used to them. And I can point you to all the software that will make life good for the business you do.

                                                      I love MAC's but the answer is what software do you run and is it available for the MAC? Adobe is a year off with versions of the Intel MAC so confirm run speed of current versions before you plunk down the $$.

                                                      I plan to buy a new intel MAC notebook as soon as the 17" comes out. I have had 3 years on ine and it runs great but I need the silicon orgasm!

                                                              Once you go MAC you never go back! OSX makes Windows look like a bloated goat with leaks.

                                                                      If the apps are Universal and doesn't need to go through Rosetta, they are blazing fast. If they need to go through Rosetta they tend to chew up a lot of memory and CPU. But they are still definitely usable.

                                                                      Only thing that isn't Universal for me is Dreamweaver and Photoshop.

If you don't already have macs and mac software lying around just get a 2Ghz dual core 2GB ram Dell where you don't have to settle for the 15.4" 1440x900 screen the macs have and go for a 17" 1920x1200 UWXGA for less than the apples.

                                                                                                                                                                  I also own a Mac for occasional use due to format issues on certain files. I have a non apple mouse hooked up to it and right click options are supported 100% on screen. Actually, the right click options on Macs beat the options on Windows. So why do they have to be assholes and not put that on the laptop touchpad? That's Apple's problem, they spend too much time trying to be different instead of giving the consumer exactly what he wants.
