I bought an aluminum one and exchanged it 3 times then eventually refunded cause it had shit build quality. Read macrumors forum, I had everything from slanted keys, loose battery covers, and flickering screens.

Kinda glad I refunded it cause it felt like an impulse buy... I mean I could do everything the Mac could do on Windows and more. Any type of office productivity BLOWS on a Mac, I have no idea how you can like it. Word 08 sucks, Powerpoint is decent, Excel 08 has shit compatibility with Excel 07/03, Entourage sucks compared to Outlook, and Office on Mac doesn't even have OneNote or Access. It takes like more than twice as long to OPEN any of the MS office apps (compared to Windows) and even longer to SAVE (wtf?). Oh.. and forget using a Blackberry on a Mac as well (if you have one) cause there's basically zero compatibility. This is coming from a business student so if you don't need stuff like Outlook, Blackberries, and Access then I don't think a Mac will be that different.

and eclypz... you forgot dumb people haha. I can't count the number of times I walked into the Apple store downtown and find people booking 2 hr appointments at the "genius bar" to get taught how to bookmark sites and create new folders
