Yup...same here! My sister has been using Macs forever, but I went the route of PCs over the years. I have wanted to get a Mac for a long time, but am just now getting the opportunity.
I'm a fine art photographer in my spare time and quite frankly I'm tired of Vista and the stupid Explorer bar locking up....
I'm not a total techie, but I did manage to rebuild my old HP laptop after the motherboard and the processor died. It's currently the back up to the Toshiba.
I will hang out for a while and see when the new MBP comes out...
