Don't let RV rain on your parade, James. You did great with it.

I'm saving up all my money as well as an arm and a leg to buy the nicer 15" MacBook Pro. Hopefully I'll have it within a month. (Can't wait!)

Yeah, I think apple products are probably the best when it comes to creative stuff such as music, and image and video editing. But they're probably not as good when it comes to stuff like gaming and modding and expandability. I would be saving up for perhaps a high end Macintosh (probably would get it in about 3 years though) to edit video with, but my house is too small!

Thanks!

I'm saving up for an iMac. Ooh, I can't wait.

No longer entirely the case, at least as far as gaming. The MacBook Pro I am getting is being purchased with gaming at least partly in mind. It will have an NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT which is equivalent to the card I have in my gaming desktop right now, and of course it will also be able to dual boot Windows and thus run all my Windows applications and games.

And of course, I will be transitioning all of my music production facilities over to Mac ASAP -- I've already started moving over to my Mac mini and my somewhat less-than-legal OSX86 installation on my PC, so as soon as I get the MacBook Pro I will be free, free, free... and I'm so excited about it.

Oh no! Damn I forgot about bootcamp!

Well I'm going to bed now... its 22:32 and I'm worn out. Too much remixing today.
Will speak tomorrow.

Apple is perfectly capable of brainwashing people themselves. Perhaps too much so if they can convince people like you to make advertisements for them.

Copying other peoples' style is hardly showing off your design skill. Its merely showing off how well you can emulate someone else's work. There's even a term for it: plagiarism.

If you want to 'show off' your graphic design capabilities, make something original.

I love Macs. Especially iMacs.

Thanks Superkid!

I'm proud of this one. It's much more accurate than my previous attempt. Maybe it's just because the new iMac's so much better anyway.

I wish the Apple marketing department would learn basic grammar.

He just kept talking in one long incredibly unbroken sentence moving from topic to topic so that no one had a chance to interrupt him it was really quite hypnotic.

That's an impressive bit of HTML coding there, sir! Well done!

I'm also proud to say that Apple menu drop down came from my humble Mac.
