    Thats only your …
    Thats only your opinion Ed, each operating system has its strengths and weaknesses. for example linux is free and so the software you run on it, windows runs more software then the other os and offers more control (group policies, active directory etc..), and mac is easier to use. I use all of the above os’s but If i had to use only one OS i would choose window, and thats because the software I use runs on it

    They already put the glossy screen in production for the 13″ and 15″ versions.
    After receiving feedback of users saying that they “miss” the anti-glare feature, they included it for their newest Macbook; the 17″.
    Maybe they’ll provide the same option for the other ones as well. It would indeed be decent.
    But I don’t think it to be a commercial strategy.

    Apple nervs me …
    Apple nervs me everytime, going to add an antiglare screen only for the 17, this is because they think, somebody will buy this big pig of a monster, but am sure, they will not be many!!! This Idiots of an Apple should take care for theyr customers, and provide a antiglare screen also for a 15 ich Macbook Pro.
    This is a bastarded selling strategy without feeling! Well off, i am also able to design on a glossy screen, well apple kiss my ass!

    I would either buy a macbook pro 15′ 2,8Ghz 320 /7200RPM
    Am sure, its the best choice. 8 Hours does not matter, the Laptop is very big, its not for somebody goes arround and want sit, drink a coffee and work on it. Neither a Graphics need such Thing. Better he works at home, its much more logical. And wou woldn’t buy a 17 inch Macbook, either a 30 inch Widescreen to connect to your Macbook Pro. The Battery is not removable, this means, later you can’t sell it to a person of your choice…

    The battery is …
    The battery is supposed to last up to five years with up to 1000 charges. If for some reason an issue arised, which it wouldn’t blow up like the old one because it’s completely different and redesigned, Apple will replace it for $179.

    Really? Built in 5.1 surround sound? Thats dumb. 2 Mouse buttons? The Mac has 4 features built into 1 seamless touch pad. It has media buttons and it handles 8 Gb of RAM. It’s not a toy, it’s for the people who need to do high intensity stuff on the go.

    I didnt ever made excact calculations. But I work for a printing company making Wedding Photo Albums, Banners, Business cards, Flyers and all of that printing stuff.
    The photoalbums were $250, a 15sheets design.
    I made 30 in 2 years plus the other stuff.

    I shoot events, mostly weddings or sweet 15 or 16 whatever it is. $300 for the whole event.
    retouched and sorted the photos from 2 cameras.nBut I guess that money is for the camera investment.
