New to this forum but not to Mac
I'm looking for a Mac laptop and have been investigating the Macbook Pros. Had a Mac decades ago and then went the way of PCs due to work, availability, cost, etc. Currently one son has Macbook Pro and loves it, other son has Toshiba Satellite, we have several Dells (am on one now). Have looked at Lenovo and Sony Vaio and have come to the conclusion that Mac is the only way to go (for me).
I have decided on a notebook because I want portability, and because I multitask to a fault, I need as much RAM as possible; in addition, I tend to store a lot (too much, probably) on my hard drive bc I work on video presentations (a lot of mixing, etc.) and need to have all with me when I work, although I do back up. Have heard that the 17" Macbook Pro may be difficult to maneuver in a plane, but love the high resolution screen option.
I don't know when to make the purchase.....I was going to use my October 'birthday' as an excuse to get this now, but should I wait until Leopard (or any other updates) will come out, and if so, what would be anyone's best guess as to when to purchase----?
Thanks for any help you can give me!
