So, with that said, I am about to make the jump over to Apple. With my laptop anyway. There are so many laptop computers out there these days, all with a wide range of specs from a wide range of manufacturers, but one problem, they all run Vista. I think whatever system I buy, regardless of spec, I am going to run into issues. I have heard nothing put praise for Apple systems so I am going to make the switch. Let’s hope they really do make the best laptops! I have still not decided which system to go for, I am favouring the Macbook Pro but can’t decide whether to go for the 15″ or the 17″. A 17 laptop would be ideal for me but I wouldn’t fancy dragging it to the office every day. Let’s hope regardless of which one I go for, I don’t experience the regular crashes I am prone to currently!
