[QUOTE="walkerj, post: 421119, member: 9385"] If you start right now, and take a dollar each day from now until Leopard's release and put it in a jar, by the time it is released you will have enough to purchase it for upgrading your new Mac. Pocket change, 4 quarters a day. Do the same to get Vista and you'll be doing that for a year and have a "meh" OS that restricts what you do with it. My brother in law is a very accomplished musician, and he has been enjoying what his Macbook can do with music ever since he switched some three months ago. Same with video and DVDs. Firefox has been covered. No worries. Some of the games, however, you might find a little lacking. I know from other reports that WoW runs well, and know personally that UT2004 runs fine on a Macbook. The Quake 4 demo I downloaded, not so much. That's definitely MBPro territory. Not sure about the civs. Overall though, the Macbook is an awesome little computer that is the perfect combo of form and function. [/QUOTE]
