Ive read many things so far that have taken both sides and I like the ability that you should be able to run a windows program at full speed on your Intel based mac (without virtual pc), but I don't want to end up with an overpriced pile of junk when basically I can just buy a PC laptop for much cheaper and it does the same thing.

So, help me weigh out the positives and negatives for both sides so I can make my decision in the next couple of months.
Oh my........... I remember back in the day DJ...... oh well......

Welcome. Anyway, WAIT. Wait until an Intel iBook comes out, you should be able to dual-boot and also run OSX. I find that most PC only apps are only good on desktops, so having an OSX laptop is a great idea for notes, email, and internet. Also, from what I hear, the Intel iBooks will be much cheaper!
