Good Points
Superb screen fast apple build quality (think BWM/Mercedes); runs Leopard, easily the best computer operating system available. Also runs Windows and Linux. Comes with brilliant integrated software that you would have to pay for (if you could get it) on a PC.
Bad Points
If you don't need the top level facilities, The 699 Mac Book does all the above but with a slightly smaller screen in a more utilitarian case.
General Comments
The Apple MacBook Pro is amazing! Out-of-the-box features include i Photo image editor, I Movie digital movie editor, Garage Band digital recording studio, Web Page/Web Gallery creation, simple wireless networking. Every thing's seamlessly integrated in a way no Windows platform can match. For faster performance add more RAM from Crucial.co.uk. Apple's dot.mac facility (which allows off line storage/backup, image hosting, remote access to your Mac from another, video conferencing etc, costs an extra 60.
