I'm under the impression that its for video / graphic editing but then again I know a dozen people who do none of this lol

TBH I don't know what the whole editing/photoshop thing is about, seriously what's the difference to using the same programs on Windows?
I just find my mac stays organized a lot better, also there aren't many PC Laptops you can get that are this well built. Also they are pretty quiet. I don't think you notice the advantages until you use them in tandem with PCs. It keeps things simple overall though, I just had telus setup the internet at home with optik and first 2 weeks all the PCs (about 4 laptops) were losing the connection with the router, some reason my imac and mbp stayed connected the whole time. Neither has EVER become disconnected in the last 2 and a half years.
Startup time is also great, my imac takes about 10-15 secs to startup and maybe 25s to start RS'ing, I have similarly spec'ed windows 7 laptops that are nowhere near as fast.
TBH It's probably not worth it but it's definitely not the worst way to spend your money. On paper they are generally garbage though, except for the battery life which is really staggering and the main reason I went with the macbook pro because I do spend a lot of time at school now and I really don't want to carry a charger, the laptop alone is heavy enough.
