typing this on a dell precision-class laptop and yeah, it's a dream. even between this and my latitude (which is still business class but one tier down) it's noticeable.

there are nice quality laptops to be had, they're just expensive enough that apple becomes competitive price-wise.

True, I tend to stick to business class and buy off lease equipment. It's usually pretty durable and repairable. You can even get parts.
