Well I have been looking for a while now at new laptops, I do not use desktops because I like to be mobil, so I had decided on a MacBook Pro. Mainly because I have heard horror stories about Vista and PC Mag review on the OS said that a Mac ran Windows faster than PC's that were built for Windows. I must say I am really pleased and amazed at how easy the transition was. If I need a program that needs Windows I can run Windows on a Mac, although I am trying to switch completely. All in all very pleasurable experience.
