I'd stick with the Mac. That deal where you can slide around to
from one desktop to another is *definitely* worth the price of
admission. And the keyboard just feels so unbelievably
luxurious. Not to mention the great screen saver that shows
all the photos from your trip to Hawaii. You'll hardly notice
that your IDL code... uh, doesn't run so well. :-)

Cheers,

David

P.S. Did I mention you can hook your iPod up to it?
