I really don't like the new ones because of the over glossy displays.
Those using the macbooks:
- how well does XP run on them via Bootcamp?
- does Adobe software run better on Leopard than XP?
- exactly WHY do you prefer Apple to traditional laptops?

XP runs just fine on my Macbook
Adobe software runs just as well (CS3, that is) on Leopard now, imho better, than on XP and it isn't so sluggish when you are doing a lot at once in the application.
I like Apple because I am tired of Windows... When I had Windows computers, I was always replacing my harddrive once or twice a year... XP is horrible on the harddrive, the file system is so outdated and the OS is almost 9 years old. Anyone serious about computing should get a mac. sure it doesn't play games without bootcamp / windows or using cross over, but it's a great work machine and there is plenty of software out there that you can use that is equal to or better... the interface and ease of use is just phenomenal. It's a great investment. And my final case in point is, if you aren't ready to jump to Linux, grab a mac, it's the closest thing you are going to get
