+1 ! My newest mac laptop is the 12" G4. I also like the little 13" macbook with the more powerfull ION graphic. But the glare type display really sucks (and there is no matte option for the 13" version) . I was admin in a 20 people company until march. When i purchased gear i had to check if its "legal". For germany there is a insurance rule which is defining a healthy PC desktop environment...

I have a Asus N81 laptop and use Opera as my browser because it\'s not as bloated as Firefox and imo is faster than Firefox, it also has built in mouse gesters. I know you can add all that stuff on FF with their add-ons, but by the time you get FF with all the goodies that Opera has built in, it\'s way bloated. Oh and it\'s not Internet Explorer from Micro$oft.

I just bought a 17" MacBook Pro to replace a 15" MBP I\'ve used for the past 3 years. I use Safari for browsing.

Interesting topic, browsing this forum is fun. I surf from the setup below. Everything is still the same from when I took the picture except the office recently gave me a replacement to my aging (but totally reliable) D600 from 2004. Computer is now a D620, 2.0GHz C2D, XPSP3, SSD, 4GB Memory (or whatever a 32-bit system can use). My old setup wan\'t bad, but the the 2GB/1.8GHz single-core was starting to hold things back. Opera all the...

I cannot vote because I use linux and it is not on the list. Notebook = Lenovo Y650 with Ubuntu 9.10 Browser = Opera 10.10
