[QUOTE="fleurya, post: 357102, member: 22866"] Basically, it's freakin' BEAUTIFUL man!! I have to admit, one of the main motivations fro getting my MBP was the physical appearance. Nw, I couldn't own anything else. When I'm in my grad school classes and see people working on other laptops, there's just no comparison. Their computers just look like an outdated pile of trash compared to my MBP. The only computer that comes close to good looks is LG's T1 (bigger screen and thinner than a macbook, and looks great), but it just doesn't have the power. I had reservations about the OS since every Mac I've touched from the 80's through 2000 seemed to crash on my me with no recovery! Seriously, I would just be using a programs, like a word processor, and "boom!" get the little watch and nothing works. But I thought I'd give it another shot. Now, when I switch back to Windows, I just feel like I'm taking a step back. Even Vistas isn't looking good to me in comparison. The only downsides I can think of is most other laptops have more connectivity ports, which worried em at first, but hasn't caused any problems. Also, if you got a professional model like a Thinkpad, they come with 3 year warranty standard whereas Apple only gives you a year with the option of buying an extended warranty. But that's only an issue if you're buying a professional model laptop, most consumer-level laptops are 1 year also. I have been officially assimilated. [/QUOTE]
