I just wanted to say hi and get some advice. I been in the computer field 10+ years and used many Micro$$$oft and *nix systems. I always build mine own systems and bought cheap stuff while I was in school. I have too many old machines @ the house and I was looking to upgrade to a "do it all machine." After i looked at desktops and laptops and seeing all the crap the new systems came with (VISTA    ) I decide to look at my options. Reformat with Linux or buy a Mac. I am happy to say  MAC!!! I think I am going to bite the bullet and buy a MBP. Any advice would be great. Thanks for the help, tiny
