Laptop! - Posted By ashkir (ashkir) on 13th Jan 09 at 4:50am
I think I finally want a laptop. ^_^. I have a budget of 1000 - 2000 USD.

I cannot seem to think of getting a MacBook Pro or a Vista Laptop. There seems to be a lot of debates of both going back and forth and back and forth and back and forth. What would you recommend and why?

MacBook Pro - its stabler and Leopard is hotter than Vista - plus you can always dual boot into Vista on it!

Get Vista!

You can always make other OS's into Virtual Machines!

(Windows 7 does not work {Unsure} not sure if Leopard does or not.)

I'm the same as you Ash, i'm torn between what sort of laptop to get!

I say get Vista for now, upgrade to Windows 7 when it's released; until then, dual-boot Unbuntu. {Grin}

Vista (Host) Ubuntu (Dual Boot) Windows XP (Virtual machine)
