Just wanted to let everyone know how much I love my 1st Mac. Since buying it, even my shiny new iPhone 4 doesn't thrill me as much and I really like my iPhone too.

The only 'issue' I have is that sometimes my MBP 'releases' its wireless connection, but that only happens when the other (PC) laptop is turned on, so I assume they are both fighting for the same IP address. Other than that it works fine.

Last week I also purchased iWork 2009.:D

I had the same issue with my MBP out of the box. Did you try resetting your router? I did and it fixed it.
 
No. I think it has to do with the other laptop requesting the same IP. It rarely happens, so I'm not overly concerned.

Well resetting the router would drop all IP address and once the computers connect, they will get new IPs....
