[QUOTE="JarLeachJim, post: 203470"] I apologize if this question is beaten to the ground on this site. I really want to switch and I'm not sure if I should. These are the things I will be doing: 1. Burning/Copying CD'd and DVD's (Can you copy CD's and DVD's seamlessly on Mac's) 2. I'm a grad student working on my MCIS, so I need to have Java, C/C++, VB, HTML, MS Office (for Access DB) IDE'S/studios on my machine. (Obviously I'll need a laptop) 3. Simple gaming. I don't want a gaming machine, but I'd to play a few games ala WoW, Civ 4... 4. I have about 2300 songs on my PC in my itunes folder. Is it easy to convert my windows ipod to a mac ipod 5. I have a wireless network, Can I transfer files from my two PC's to my new mac What do you guys/gals think. Based on what I'll be using the machine for, should I take the plunge into the world of macintosh? I need a laptop for school so is there a mac laptop that fits the above criteria? [/QUOTE]
