My Macbook Saved the Day - Sort of

Well, it depends on how you look at it.
I go to class and the prof boots up the Dell laptop and he can't run the Power Point Viewer. Pity. He can't install it either. He can't do ***.
So I take out my macbook, hook it to the projector and run the damn presentation. Hell, I'm paying several thousand dollars for this class God dammit I'm not wasting time because some piece of *** Dell decided to take a dump.
So maybe I got a few brownie points.

So when I start traveling there's nothing I'd rather have than this 13 inch monster - pun intended. What should I do? Have to reply on XP and have to fix the damn machine while I should be out experiencing the place I'm at? I work in IT, and I had an XP machine die on me while I was traveling - never again.
