Sure, but it's starting to look now like the MacBook is one of the cheapest intel laptops for the dollar. It's actually $300 cheaper than the equivalent Dell. I have a friend who just bought a nice intel laptop from Quanta a few months ago and now he's kicking himself for not waiting for the MacBook since the MacBook is the same hardware but a lot cheaper. But of course I know what you are really talking about... saving up for your next laptop. > > After taking a more serious look at the new 13"macbooks and the way > they're designed (as well as a little Mac propoganda here at work:-)), > If I had $1200 I would go pick one up right now.

I'll definitely be trying to decide between the MacBook 13 and the MacBookPro 15". I like the small size of the MacBook, but I'm not keen on the color, the keyboard, or the crappy glossy screen. I have always thought that the glossy screen makes laptops just feel cheap somehow.
