    I'm seriously considering to sell my Vaio FW21. Great laptop, but feels just a little too big to carry around all the time. I'm thinking about going to a Macbook or Macbook Pro for a change. Anyone else did the same? Opinions? Main appeal to me is the sleeker/smaller laptop, supposedly great battery life for normal use and weight. Cons are smaller resolution, not knowing about OsX and lesser specs.

    Mind that I have the FW21 with the so-called ECO screen

    Yep, That is what i'm considering ^^!
    Vaio FW is awesome for entertainment! But it's too inconvenient to carry around.
    And MacOS is better than Windows Vista for sure :D
    Macbook does not has discrete graphic card while Macbook Pro does. I'm going to buy Macbook Aluminum 2.4Ghz :x
