Well I have yet to make a blog post here besides my "Get to know the Team:" topic. So I guess I should make one. I will most likely be bragging here, I am sorry, but I love this thing.
I recently acquired a new computer for my schooling needs. Its a nice little Macbook Pro. It only has a 15" monitor but its bigger than my desktop 15" monitor due to it being a widescreen monitor. So things seem better.
It came with a 128 mb video card, So this was really cool. I sometimes play Medal of Honor Allied Assault Spearhead/Breakthrough and with the default settings in it, I have quadroupled my FPS now. So this is very good for me. I have been stealing my mouse and keyboard from my tower computer and hooking it up to play games (Though I don't need the keyboard it gets hot staying there to long).
To add to this I got a Dual core 2.2 GHZ processor with a very fast bus speed (but most don't know or care what it is) and 2 GB of ram.. So things have really speed up. Thats good news around here. I can handle more tabs and such than my old tower and that means more mods I can approve at once or support.
The sickest part I really love is the built in wireless N card with 1000/100/10 Ethernet cable (Though I don't bother Since I got a wireless N connecting to a wireless G router). Since it is a mac it goes that cool power plug feature that lets you pull it out without taking the laptop with it. I haven't had it long but have already accidently a couple of times knocked out the power plug so I will need to get used to that.
The best news is I will get 10.5 with it when It comes in. It comes with Boot Camp, So I can run windows (ha yea right) or linux if I wanted to and partition my computer to do this. Its something I like about the Intel macs.
There is much more but I think I have bragged enough. If you think I am to biased, well yes I am being biased here. If you think I am a mac lover, yes I am. If you think you wont get a mac, you may be wrong. I know another person who recently got a apple laptop and loves it better than his pc laptop.
