HA, figures. Sony has always made some of the most elegant windows computers, and as windows moves to look like mac, makes sense that Sony would too

looks familiar (scratches head)... but I just can't figure out where I've seen it before. Not to knock my Zen vision (which I love) but the interface on that looks awfully familiar as well...

I don't think it looks anything like a macbook. It's silver with a white keyboard, has sharp corners, isn't rounded like a macbook, and doesn't have the individual key style keyboard of the macbooks.. How does this look like a macbook?

Personally I find that Sony to be fuggly, and nothing close to a MBP. It looks so cheap. I am not an apple guy, but the MBP is by far the best looking notebook out. If it was priced a bit better I would jump on it in a heart beat. Also now with Dual booting, I could really give Mac OS a fair chance.

Actually, Windows was made to look like Apple's operating systems from the get-go. Microsoft is just getting closer with time

Well I can say that after dual booting OSX and XP for a few days I can safely say that I love my MBP. Input Remapper is the best utility for running XP on a MBP.

Plus it may just be me, but XP seems to run incredibly smooth on the MBP.

If Sony could just get past the whole wedge shaped design of their notebooks now...

(Not to criticize the people that like that, I'm just not a big fan.
