Two years ago I would have said a Mac. I still have and love my 2007 Core2Duo Macbook.

And hey, this is 2010, 3.5 years later.

GUESS WHAT THEY ARE STILL SELLING IN THEIR MACBOOK LINEUP
That's right - the same core2duo that must be cheap as hell for them by now and are 2 years too old.

I'd buy a Macbook pro 13" in a heartbeat if it came in core i7. 15" is too large for me.

And their towers are a ripoff. My GF just built a PC that, configured exactly (and with a superior video card because Mac doesn't support cuda video rendering), comes out to $9k as a Mac tower. Her cost? Just under $3k with some deals on parts.

So, whenever a core 13" i7 macbook pro comes out I'll get that and for now Steve Jobs can suck me. I've given him enough money already.

Though I might just go with an i7 Windows for a main workhorse and get one of the new Airs for the super portable option. Those are quite sexy all things considered.
