Nice! Great choice. After you've used a Mac for a while you'll understand why many of us are indeed as passionate about our computers as we are about our cars.

So do you like your new laptop??
like i said above, now i understand the almost "cult" following MAC users have. it's very different environment from the PC world.

Anyone have issues with Apple only releasing Glossy screen for its new Macbook/Macbook Pro line?
I've tested the Glossy screens - they are horrible. Deep blacks and rich colors Yes, but the glare and reflections - what a nightmare.
I've own 5 Apple laptops, including the 17" Macbook Pro I'm using now... Until Apple releases a matte screen, I won't be buying another Apple laptop.

since this is my first MAC, i haven't had the pleasure of experiencing a matte screen. but as far as the glossy screen, it's fine for me. i'd much prefer a more crisp monitor and a little glare vs. no glare and not so crisp monitor.
