 A grand on a used laptop?  Are you serious? Also nothing makes me laugh more then mac fanboys fucking complaining about Window's being a copy of the Mac OS.  It doesn't matter... Gates saw the future just like Steve Jobs saw the future with the iPod... they created a more user friendly version of something that already existed slapped a brand on it and marketed the shit out of it.  As for waiting... intel's new chipset that suppose to go upto 16(32? damn I'm dropping out of the loop myself) cores should be releasing in the next couple of years.  You can keep waiting and something better is always going to come out... sometimes grabbing the high end of the last generation can save you hundreds of dollars and get you the performance you need for the next couple of years.  Of course I don't run that arms race anymore as I have neither the time nor the money to keep up with the Joneses.

 

btw:  Taken (the movie) is f'n awesome!  sorry just came from watching it

 

Just so you don't miss a nice movie out of misconceptions, Pirates of... isn't pro-apple (neither it's pro-ms).

It is true that computers always evolve and waiting will always yield more performance per dollar... but the current MB/MBP are just rehashes of last year's versions. Slightly increased FSB for a what, 5-7% performance boost? That's all. There's the nicer screen and the sweet unibody, and just that. Macs are expensive and 1500$ for last year's portable standards is sort of meh. By the way, used macs are often expensive...

Impulsivity and me are just saying that if Nightdragon wants an Apple laptop and he doesn't need it right now... well, if you have to buy it... the white macbook they sell for 999$ got upgraded with the unibody macbook innards so it's a very nice buy.
