I wouldn't pay that much for something that's designed to be disposable, even if I liked modern Macs...

I do not like PCs anymore, and I would rather pay for my Macbook Pro any day than deal with the nightmare that windows is.
You could save an ***load, have upgradability, and still not have to deal with Windows by going the Hackintosh route, y'know.

Anyone can see that OS X has inherently better management than ANY windows computer,heck, when XP was still the norm, Tiger was pioneering new OS features. Plus, I get a free upgrade to ML :P
Not to get into OS wars or anything, but does OSX have arbitrary selection of files via keyboard (like Windows's Ctrl+arrows and Ctrl+space) yet? They love to put in fancy new features, but they seem to overlook or skimp on a lot of basic groundwork stuff...
