Yeah, but with a hot item like that, it won't be long before there's tons of stuff out there--look at the insane amount of third party stuff for iPods. Oh, and you should totally get a macbook pro, I've got a 17" and I'm absolutely in love with it, the hardware is amazing and it can do everything I need, the quality of freeware/shareware programs for OS X are amazing, some are better than the stuff put out by big companies. For instance, when I first tried using AIM on this thing it was buggy as hell since it wasn't a universal binary and AOL never made that reliable of a program in the first place, then I got a program called Fire. Fire is amazing, it seemlessly allows you to connect to every IM service you've ever heard of and a few more, and you can have multiple screen names logged in at the same time, and they've had tabbed message way before AOL. Most programs I've found for the Mac are like that, if a popular piece of software from a PC won't natively run in OS X, somebody has already made something better for Mac. The other sellng point of the Intel Macs is the fact that it can run Windows too, if you absoultely have to have it for work or something. If you get one tho, wait a few months, because Leopard is coming out soon, and you might as well not have to upgrade your OS if you can wait a bit longer.
