Got a new toy ;)

I love it! I would have to say the gestures in PS are awesome and make editing unreal. I don't know how I didn't use this when I first got into photography, I also love the smoothness of the system and I love the layout of the system. I installed VMware fusion and I'm running vista at the moment, although I think I'm going to put windows 7 on it. BTW love the fact I can call customer service and get a American talking to me!


Oh yeah, I also had to take a picture of it for kicks

If you run it in a virtualization environment, it's slow, but good enough for simple tasks. If you dual boot it, it's just as fast as any comparable PC laptop. Apple supplies all the windows drivers needed to use any mac as if it were a PC. You really get the best of both worlds that way.

Interesting (the dual boot thing). I am curious about Win7. I really liked my Apple laptop and would consider a new macbook instead of a netbook. but sometimes I need windows for stuff

Nice photo by the way, good use of color.

i like the new parallels 4.0 better then vmware and much better then the previous versions of parallels. i decided to throw on XP and not vista, really the only reason for it was to run Bavarian scanning tool and Blackberry desktop manager.

looks like 15" aren't you tempted to get the 24"LED display now with a wireless setup..

Because they're some programs that won't run on a mac. And that's why I have it.

Got it. I thought by your message you were running windows exclusively.
