virtually obsolete workstation. Only thing that keeps it going is half a
terrabyte of disk space and it is fairly stable).

Wait a while, get a MacBook (probably due to surface this month, maybe
next Tuesday). Will dual boot XP and MacOS X.


And cost 5 million quid and your first born child.

Oh look. As I said, the MacBook (iBook replacement) has just been
announced. Core Duo processors, 13.3" Widescreen, 60Gb HD, Combo drive,
Wireless and Bluetooth - and one hopes, a similarly robust construction to
the iBook.

And £749.

Hardly breaking the bank, is it... especially for a dual-core system.

Does it come with a magnifying glass for the tiny screen? For that much I
got a Toshiba with a Duo Centrino chipset, 100gb HDD, Super DVD drive that
does everything including DVD ram, Fingerprint scanner, bluetooth, b/g
wireless card, 15.4" widescreen with 1680 x 1050 resolution and 1.5 gig of
ram.
