New computer, hooray. I could use some advice!

I'm considering buying a 2.4 GHz glossy-screen MacBook Pro.

The Apple store has some refurbs for 300 bucks off. (Refurbished MacBook Pro 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo...$2199.00)


Is this a good idea?

Should I wait until Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)? (I think I can wait that long, it's been 7 years since my last new computer, what's a few months?)

What do you think?

You should get a Toshiba Satellite.

Why do I suddenly feel so very out of place?

Heheh.

You Luddite DOS-Head. Heh.

Yesterday on the radio was a guy who said he still ran DOS. If it weren't for the fact that I'm involved, I so would've called and tried to arrange a date!

But, at least Toshibas don't have glossy screens! They do, however, have fans on the bottom. I'd like to know whose bright idea that was.
