After buying a Mac Desktop w/ 23" LCD back in November, I think I'm hooked.

I picked up a PowerBook G4 15" this week at my local apple store in Peabody, MA and am happily typing away.

Here's their info on the laptop:

I'm pretty pleased with it so far. I think it all comes down to what you need and what you're using it for.

I can't do what I want to do with this on a Windows machine.. Trust me, I have several of them around here as well ;-)

Not to doubt you, but if you went with a PC that was more of a workstation class than a desktop class, you could probably get it done.

You don't know? So why state that if "you went with a PC that was more of a workstation class..." as if you knew what my needs were?
