I bought a MacBookpro last year and I like it, but it was a kind of culture-shock to switch from my dell-PC to Mac.
It took some time to get all switched over; especially the writing of my research suffered, as I switched from word for windows to Pages.......OpenOffice......now Word for Windows.
Perhaps I should have gone for the option of half the Mac for OS and the other half for Windows. But that's all hindsight. I'm good now, but it took some time.
I'm saving up for a Kindle-DX as I would love to have something that reads PDF's well, and my Kindles don't. I get some extra money by assisting a the polling station (175 euro's). We had three elections this last few years, which were good for two Kindles.
