All good points and well-thought out. I agree the Air is seductive, as are all the Mac designs. My choice in laptops has ALWAYS cost $3000-ish, whether it's the top-of-the-line Dell (Outlet) or Lenovo (Outlet). Over the 3-5 year lifetime of the laptops, the difference in price and the improved reliability and QUALITY OF LIFE have always been worth it. -- Ted Roche & Associates, LLC http://www.tedroche.com/ _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
