custom build one. Personally I like the T because you can get higher resolution, not much of a fan of the widescreen :hs:

widescreen is must thoe. esp for editing photos. 15.4 is perfect size, its not to big or heavy.

i'm really excited!!! The MACs in the office are so slow! It takes forever to download images to them, and then editing is a bitch and slow.

I can be done all my work in ten minutes now, well once i get an IBM lappy. SIIIICKY.

oh uh..if you are editing images I would seriously go Mac.

they hold color profiles better and their screens are not as prone to angling issues as a PC screen is. Not sure how but Mac got their screens right. I will not image edit on my IBM for any reason at all.
