Right now I'm using an HP Vista laptop. I like it but as of late I have been having a few problems here and there. The build quality sucks; this weekend the screen hinge on the left hand side broke out of nowhere. I noticed that it loosened up a bit a few months ago, but now its barely hanging on the left side while the right side is still in tact. Along with that, it crashed twice a few days prior. Those issues, topped with the horrible battery life, has had me considering the macbook Pro 13" that was released a few weeks ago.
Now, on to my question: If I transfer all of my media from the HP to an external hard drive then to the Macbook, would that be as seamless as it sounds? Or is there a way to connect the two computers together? I plan on dual booting it with Boot Camp and Vista/7 when its released, as I need windows for a number of things, and I don't find it as cumbersome as most of you do (in fact, up until a few days agop I had no problems at all with Vista, go figure). I can get a student discount on it, so the price is pretty good for what it offers, and I hear that the battery life (very important) is pretty good and the build quality is top notch. Thoughts?
