2Gb 20" old school one, looking to invest in a new one.
At the young age of 13, i became an official switcher.
This was my greatest buy in price and in saving, but my gosh it was worth it.
so here is a picture, and i am an official switcher.

How the **** did you save up for a MBP at 13? :D Wish I had that kind of pocket money :D Took me the whole summer to work off mine :) :)

Hope you enjoy your new machine :) If you want to play CSS you can always use Boot Camp and I bet it would even run virtually. I know I have CS1.6 in a wrapper, although the processor really spikes with that :D

I hope so. I thought I was doing well for myself at 13 when I bought my own iPod...:Smirk:

Welcome to Mac nonetheless!

Yes you are from a rich family to afford something like that.
That aside at least your parents are wise. Then going halves in a Macbook Pro and not just any random windows box proves this.

And the good part is the Macbook Pro will be good for at least 5 years. Maybe even more. That's enough time to finish school, get a job and save up for your next Macintosh.

(I know Mac is short for Macintosh. But saying Macintoshbook Pro just sounds weird :) )

Beautiful is all I can say. Still using the older MBPs that aren't unibody and my newer MB. >_<" It gets so dirty easily and I'm really thinking of getting a new MBP. >_>" It's either that or a Canon 7D.

Well, they're both pretty close in price! Just read a review on the 7D. Sweet. Have fun with either. :)

Regards.

Hey kid, good for you.
I'm still a pre-switcher and hope to pull the trigger soon.
It takes me a little longer these days.....I'm 82

Congrats kid - this is definitely the best purchase of your teenage years, besides a car anyway, but you have a few more years for that ;D

I just bought my first MBP too - You will not be disappointed!!!

Enjoy!

congrats on getting your new MBP! be sure to download adium, its a must have IM Client. Also check out google chrome. and for your school work you should check out iWork. Wayyy better than MS Office...
