The HP nightmare continues

For those of you who have been following my love/hate relationship with HP over the past year, you're not going to believe this one. At the beginning of March they sent me a lovely brand new Pavillion dv6000. Despite the fact that it came with Vista which is just as bad as everyone says it is, it was working beautifully. Then, in the middle of my workship at New Comms Forum on Friday it freezes. I turn it off, and all I got was a black screen. After 3 days of emailing HP support via my cell phone, it now has to get sent back to the factory! At least they're setting expectations correctly. By the time you read thru their proceedures, it pretty much sounds like I'll be without it for the rest of the year.

Anyone know of a good deal on a Mac laptop?

I switched to a mac laptop last fall. My mac is fast and functional. Moreover, it has great software, such as Keynote and Pages. The widgets are fun too. I think you're going to enjoy the leap!
