I have seriously considered my options for a new laptop that last few months. I have always been a windows guy, probably because I was born into it, but I feel open to change, if it is a superior change. I know that is dangerous language around Mac fans, but we will see.
I was looking into ultra portables as my currently laptop is very powerful, but a hassle to drag around. Sony Vaio is an option, maybe the new XPS 12.1" is also an option. But then there is this MacBook Pro... 13 in" widescreen. 13" is almost too big, but not too big... and it would be my first in the transition to Macs. I have heard many reports that there are problems with this new line, so if I were to decide on the MacBook Pro, I would have to wait it out until they came out with a new model or something, giving them time to work the kinks out.
So, what do you guys think of the macbook pro in comparison to the TX series of Vaio's and XPS m1210? Do you guys think that they will make a 12.1" version of the macbook pro... or do you think 13" is where they will stay with that line?
On a second note, do you guys have feedback about their tech support and product support, Apples? I have been hearing mixed reviews, especially when it comes to their ipods.
