I'm using a MacBook Pro 15" for all my recording, in fact, I'm using BootCamp from the same machine now to write you this email, so in short, they're awesome machines.
As possibly one of the newest members to this list, I didn't find the very basics of Pro Tools too hard to get into. Alls I had were Kevin's podcasts, which I still refer too quite a lot, so once again, cheers Kevin, and the lovely people on this list putting up with my main disability, cronic stupidity LOL. So yeah, Pro Tools is great, OS X is great, VoiceOver's great, and Kevin's podcasts are great. If you feel you want a little more help when you get your mac etc, I don't mind talking to you on Skype, and sharing the little I know as a new PT user. As for textual documentation, I considered writing something like this, and I might yet, but so far as I know, we've only got the podcasts out there thus far. HTH, and I'm sure you're going to have a great time with PT!
