If you can hold out until this fall - '07 when Leopard will come onboard, your Rosetta issue may not be so much an issue. I would think that the MacBook Pro would be your first choice. And the choice of 15" or 17" is more more personal given your stated usage. That said I doubt if there would be any regrets if you opted for the 17" MacBook Pro. But I have a bias – the 17" MacBook Pro will be my next notebook. Ptah Hotep/Tehuti Images -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
