And after months of trying to decide which new Mac I should get, I decided to replace my iBook G4, for another laptop.

I never got sold on the idea of having a Mini, and it was not going to be practical since I already own a Windows PC… And one of the (now few) reasons why I still have it is because I do a lot of Web Development on it (ie. .Net). This would have forced me to have 3 computers and then the nightmare of not knowing where I left X or Y file.

Apple made the move and released the MacBook, which replaced the iBook. With this, all the family of Apple Laptops complete the transition to Intel CPUs… I thought it just made more sense to replace my iBook for a more robust solution… I was thinking on getting the MacBook, but since I am becoming more serious on being a Mac user, I decided to get the MacBook Pro.

It has a lot of cool features that outsell the MacBook:

• Backlit Keyboard
• A Whopping 1440 by 900 Resolution
• 15-inch screen, and with the resolution, you have a great workspace area!
• The graphics card is superior, and it does not steal memory from the Main RAM (the GMA 950 does “share” it)
• Gotta luv the Metallic enclosure
• comes with 512Mb of RAM, but it is using only one slot… I will not throw away the RAM if I decide to upgrade to 1Gb.

It’s been a day… and I am liking it very much. =)
