Currently the ThinkPad T61 can give a MacBook Pro 15" a run for its money. Of course for me a MacBook Pro is just too big. I'm a bit bitter Apple wasted their time on this MacBook Air thing and didn't provide me with a nice MacBook Pro 12"! > > OS X is plenty quick. Have you ever used it? I am living proof that people should avoid Apple as much as they avoid Microsoft. See now I'm tied in now. I am reluctant to give up OS X even though a Thinkpad fits my needs (in terms of hardware) better than a MacBook. Sigh. :) Apple hooked me on their OS that's tied to a single platform. I used to think this was okay, but now I realize that they have locked me into their hardware too (duh!), which is probably okay. > > Jeff Anderson > -- Michael Torrie Assistant CSR, System Administrator Chemistry and Biochemistry Department Brigham Young University Provo, UT 84602 +1.801.422.5771 /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
