    Yeah, I understand what you mean. Getting a Mac is great as it has this "cool" factor, has great design, great OS & so on.... :)

    Yes.. he did unfortunately... and so did I.

    BTW.. if you still use your old dell, you can lower the rpm of the fan through fan control softwares to make it ask "silent" as Macs. "silent" as being "inaudiable", but not truely silent.

    Hehe, I was just trying to liven things up around here. ;) I'll give that a try, thanks for the suggestion!

    EDIT: And by saying liven things up, I'm not starting a flame war around here. ;)
