So. I made it all the way through grad school without a laptop. I was one of the very few people that didn't haul one to class every day. In most of my classes we were provided with PowerPoint handouts and so it wasn't necessary to have a laptop to take notes (not that I took many notes as it was). And most people just used their laptops to surf the 'net and tune out the professors.
I knew it was drawing close to time to purchase a new computer and I have been saving for a while for one. I decided to get a laptop for portability issues and because I have too much stuff taking up space. I wound up getting a MacBook because I wanted to get a computer that would last for years with fewer problems.
I love it. Love, love, love it! I've had it for about six weeks now and have mostly adjusted to the differences although I still need to read the booklet that came with it (I'm bad about that). I haven't yet transferred my files over from my PC, so I need to do that soon.
For those wondering at home, I did go through Ebates to get a percentage back from my purchase. And I also got a $100 discount and a free printer. I haven't completely lost my mind!
