I'm glad you got a machine that works. I've had a MacBook Pro for a couple years and don't voluntarily touch Windows for anything other than testing or AOEII (but thankfully AOE runs on XP, which I find more reliable and less confusing Windows 7). They are indeed more reliable and easier to use.And, in several cases, cheaper - per component - than Windows laptops. So I know I’m a bit late to the game here, but..

Congrats David. I’m glad you got a machine that works. I’ve had a MacBook Pro for a couple years and don’t voluntarily touch Windows for anything other than testing or AOEII (but thankfully AOE runs on XP, which I find more reliable and less confusing Windows 7). They are indeed more reliable and easier to use.

And, in several cases, cheaper – per component – than Windows laptops.

Just got an old MBP and I love it so far. Still learning the ropes, though. Your post was super-helpful. I’m starting to know what you meant by this post. Just got an old MBP and I love it so far.

It isn't really worth it. The interface isn't as slick as the software wasn't designed for PC hardware. Sleep and other things like that won't work as well.Macs rule! @David Walsh: Yes.

Macs rule!

Unfortunately, in school I'm stuck with Vista (horrible thing) and I can't wait to buy a portable Mac to have there instead.
