Hello everyone,
I'm a long time lurker but this is my first post;
I've been wanting to get a Mac laptop since the first time I was shopping for a PC of my own but the timing was never right, first, I know they were going to switch to Intel then when I was just about to buy a new laptop, someone gifted me an HP and so on,
But after waiting for more than 5 years to jump over to the civilized side of personal computing, I have finally got myself a MacBook Pro. She's a 2.2 with a 160gb Hd and I've upped the RAM to 4GB via Crucial.
I know there will be an update very soon and normally my inner geek would have never bought this model, but I really feel that this is a good enough machine. Both performance wise, I do photo editing on CS3 besides daily tasks and just occasional gaming, and design wise. Even if Apple changes the look of the Pros, I already feel like I own a design classic, so definitely no problems there.
I just wanted to thank you all for providing the support through various stages of my research and orientation. (Now, have I made this post so long because I love to type on the backlit keyboard so much? =)
All the best from Amsterdam...
