Thanks QS.
#1. I did some research and I concluded that Bootcamp(XP)+Leo with Fusion ver 2.* would be the best combination. If I get the notorious activation issues I will keep you posted. I am backing up my drive for testing.

#2. Newest is not always the best... I'll see if I like the new glassy (glossy too) display at the Mac Store. I love the new single piece base but I am not sure if I am ready to shell out 3G.

Lots of folks knock the dell brand computers, desktop and laptop models. I have 4 dells, one old dimension 4400 my wife has used every day for like 8 years, its never been cut off more than a dozen times over the years and it still runs flawlessly, not the first issue. I have 3 dell laptops, 1 inspiron 1501 that is used for every day crap, no issues ever. 2 dell xps gaming laptops with vista that are fairly new and no issues. I also have an alienware thats 6 or 7 years old and has been nothing but a headache since day one, it was purchased before they sold out. One sony laptop that was a nightmare, trashed it and sold it for parts online, $60.

There is nothing wrong with dell computers......and buy a warranty on ANY PC you buy.
