Interesting on what you said about the learning curve. So I went to the Apple Store and check the MacBook out. The colors on the screen are so awesome. The icons are pretty too (lol). This is really a nice laptop.

Gosh! Just not sure I want to learn a new O/S. Everything is so different. Well maybe not everything, just seems it. Like I wonder why the flat keys and no hot key buttons to access your favorites?

I will just follow your tread to keep learning what you have to say about your new toy.

Hey Bruin, just do it. I have only been using mine for 4 days now, and I'm getting used to it pretty quickly. The more you learn, the more fun it it. It is still much, much faster than my 3.0GHz PC. Maybe I should start an X5world Mac Forum? Otherwise this thread will never end .

Still on the fence; was thinking about the Thinkpad X60 Tablet. I do know that the MacBook has awesome graphics. Pulling the trigger the 1st of the month. Wait and see which way I go off the fence.

Yea! We need a Computer User board here.
