# Speaking of 'teh gay'...
...should I buy a Macbook, or some other variety of smallish laptop (like that 13 inch Dell)?

B3ta - help my capitalist spending dilemma! :)

# I'm using a Macbook, but I don't know if I'd reccommend it.
It's a different experience, sort of like bumming.

Takes a while to get used to it, and it doesn't feel the same as when you were on a computer before, and you can't do as much, but some bits are better.

OH DEAR, WHAT HAVE I SAID.

# :)
I mostly want it for dealing with digital photos on the move, some music, and some interwebs. Reckon I'd be ok with it?

# It's a much more simple interface, that's for sure.
I like the fact that there aren't any viruses (mainly because using a Mac can be torture enough) and some things are fairly useful, but it's not awful.

Switching between PC and Mac after a few weeks at a time is a proper mind fuck though, and don't get it if you want games. Some work, but I canne live without 'em.

# Ta me ducky!
Now I just need to decide if I'm stupid enough to pay extra for the matt black one... :)

# I wasn't
I quite like the sleekness of the white macbook.

I don't know why, because I hate those dull white iPods, but it's actually got a nice feel to it.
