And if you don't believe there's peer pressure to use a MBP, try going to Red Rock or the Dojo with an Acer laptop. You can just feel people judging you.

And? Unless you're trying to sell them something, who gives a rats-ass what they think? :-)

Again, tongue in cheek. :)

Though I am really buying a MBP tomorrow. I'm doing it because I need a new laptop and I like the new MBP-- but you can be sure I'll have it setup to do Windows 7 in dual boot from day 1.

Eeeeeewwwwwwwwwwwww..... boo, hiss. Windows?!??

Sorry, when you mentioned a PC based laptop, I assumed it would have been running Linux (or BSD or Plan9 or Minix or some other proper operating system.) :-)

So his point about people judging him was not way off the mark ;)

[mindcrime]

Not at all... my point isn't that people won't be judging him, my point is that it doesn't matter. And my previous response was intended to be thoroughly TIC as well, FWIW.
