[QUOTE="JackTheMac, post: 460176, member: 34250"] Hiya and Welcome to Mac Forums! 1) You get a maximum of 6 hours, with Airport off and bluetooth off. You can increase it by turning your brightness down etc. You get 3.5 hours when watching a dvd. 2)Start up time is rather fast around 20-30 seconds tops. 3)Yes they do get hot, but as they are called notebooks they are not exactly designed for your lap! you could get an [URL="http://www.raindesigninc.com/ilap.html"]ilap [/URL]or a heat mat thingy. 4) There is really no need to wait unless you must have all the features in Leopard and can wait, as you said you are in desperate need so i would buy now if i was you. 5) For podcasts garage band is designed for that. which comes part of ilife. Also i think iwork will be sufficent for your needs. 6) Don't final cut have 2 versions; express and pro? Hope i helped. JTM [/QUOTE]
