After umming and arring about it, I decided to shell out 900 odd and buy one.
To be honest, im actually very impressed with it...
I thought i'd *hate* the new touchpad - I love it.
I thought the RDC control for windows computers would be crap - its a great tool.
VMware fusion enables me to run windows-only programs incredibly easily on my macbook. (i thought it would be a resource hog and do some level of half-assed X forwarding)
Although its early days (3 days into owning the laptop) - I cant think of any reason to power up my dell inspiron.
I've got exchange running fine via thunderbird (albeit the calendar doesnt sync too well), it obviously works with my iphone and I dont need it to sync with the blackberry.
Anyone else played with/ own the macbook ranges?

). I must say I'm very impressed. It has great battery life, love the new touchpad to the point its very strange going back to the Sony laptops we have, RDC as you said is fantastic and I thought this would have been a big problem for me.. The only 'issue' I have is the glossy screen in some light levels but it's not big enough a problem for me to look at doing something about it.. yet anyway 

sour grapes perhaps? .... flame baiting aside:
