There are probably better and "cooler (less heater)" systems out there, that is for sure. Probably cheaper too. But the macbook pro should definatly be an option, especially if you want to dual boot.

Yesterday I learned the cool speach part of the macbook and OS X. I was on my desktop playing games but wanted to look at something online, so I just said "computer open my web browser" then "computer google" and safari opened and then it opened up google and I could search for what I needed. There is probably something on windows for that, but I thought it was still very awesome!
Can you tell me how to enable that feature on the MBP?

Thread Starter 
You go to your hard drive, then click on applications folder and its either Speech recognition or in utilities and speech recognition. Then you set it up to either be on listening all the time or just respond to if you say "computer" It will pull up a little window with a microphone (small circular window). If you set it to listen, anytime you say the command it will open up what you tell it. If you set it to where you have to hold esc first, then everytime you want to speak to it hold in esc. Hopefully that leads you to where it is. Once you open the window there is a down arrow at the bottom, click that and open commands and it will show you a list of commands you can say. I like to use "Computer Open my web browser" and then set webpages to have speech commands ie.. Wells Fargo, so after the browswer is open you say "Computer Wells Fargo" and it opens that page! Score!

I'm no expert Birdman, but you shouldn't have any trouble with your printer and other window based notebooks.
