I am strongly considering making the switch from PC to mac, after checking them out in an apple store it was pretty stunned by how light and then they are. So much more elegant than clunky toshibas and dells. I would be getting the macbook pro 15inch. I find the 13 inch too small, and the 17inch too big. The only question I have is are apple going to make a 15inch book with the black finish and the keyboard that the 13 inch macbooks have? I definitely prefer the keyboard and finish of the black 13inch macbooks to the 15inch macbook pros. I know that people have been going nuts over the black finish, apple are pretty savvy in terms of that so is there a chance they'll offer the 15inch black book with the new style of keyboard?
My second question is to how the interface is laid out. I have been using windows forever and when I checked out the mac I had no idea where anything was. I like to be able to get to the My Computer explorer folder easily, and all the pop up icons on the bottom of the mac screen threw me off a bit. How customizable is that bar? It seemed like there was a relatively long lag between when you clicked an icon, when it bounces around, and when the program starts up. I am going to check it out more thoroughly and this was just a quick reaction after using it for 5 minutes, but can anyone comment on switching interfaces? Thanks.
