In this thread, you persuade me to buy a Mac

[AOII Angel]

I got a Macbook Pro in August. I'd been using a PC laptop that I bought at Best Buy since December and was very happy with it (HP brand.) My husband decided that he wanted my laptop and sent me out to buy a Mac. I could really have not cared less about getting a Mac, but despite the significant difference in price, I am a complete convert! I love, love, LOVE my Mac. It is so easy to make webpages, newsletters, spreadsheets with the Mac software, and you can save anything as a PDF (I'd have had to buy the $400 software for my PC) so that there is no problem with non-Mac users to open my files. The system is set up on a more intuitive basis, the mousepad works like you think it should (I especially love being able to scroll using two fingers since the scroll bar on most PC mousepads doesn't work too well) and you never have to worry that you'll trip over the cord and send your computer careening towards the floor since the cord is magnetically attached!
