Ok, so just bit the bullet and bought a MacBook Pro.
I am a PC only person and really don't like Apple (swapped my iphone for a galaxy) and despise iTunes BUT after going through so many PC laptops and countless amounts of hardware issues and breaking plastic bits I have decided to call it a day.
Well not totally.....
I am going to install Window 7 on my Macbook (its in the post as we speak) and then migrate all my software across from my old laptop (using Laplink PCmover Pro).
I am so pissed off that I have to shell out €3000 ($4000) on ANOTHER laptop, but hopefully this one will last a few more years than the others.
The specs are:-
Processor: Intel Core i7 - 2.8 GHz
RAM - 8 GB SDRAM (2 x 4GB)
HDD - 512 GB SSD
I'll let you guys know how it goes.
