Windows For the win!
But all laptops in my house except mine are macs
My gaming instincts will never conflict with my work instinct... well... they are related ! ^_^

Could do, I guess...

Scared of Betas.
I use my laptop with Serato Scratch Live (I DJ a lot), and simply cannot afford for something to go wrong.
In fact, the reason I GOT the Macbook in the first place was that the HP Windows Vista Laptop I bought crashed 15 times in 2 weeks; A BSOF while I was doing a paid gig did not go down well.
You crash, you burn.
Needless to say, the Macbook has never crashed.

RE: Macbook users...
Hmm.... going today or tomorrow to play on it.... lets see...
by the way, uTorrent betas are very stable. However, Azerus is pretty good.

I don't get how you can get a Windows Vista laptop that unstable by normal means in all honesty. Even if it is Vista.... reliability hasn't been a problem. And if its an HP lappy - you expect the build quality to be quite good as well.

RE: Macbook users...
Well, at a great cost to my health, I did go out today and did manage to visit that store. To my disappointment, they had run out of demo-machines and it won't be available for a week...
So that sucks... >_>
However, I did use the Macbook Pro 13", so I got the taste of Snow Leopard. Seems pretty cool and I liked it. Of course, due to lack of previous MacOS experience, I could not compare and due to inability at using OS X extensively, I could not play around. Only managed to use Quicktime, iTunes, Safari and iWorks... of course, they did not have PS that I could try out.
The multi-touch trackpad was fun to use and I liked it.
The most fascinating thing was its design and build quality. Simply loved it so much that it made want to buy a MBP, for a while....
Update my experience on Macbook once I get to use it.
