| Lol if you've got the patience (or a skilled friend) why not just build on from scratch? take 800 bucks down to your closest Fry's or Micro Center or whatever and you can probably build something that will leave both the lenovo and the mbp in the dust... |

| But surely it won't look as good! :-) |

Image is nothing, thirst is everything. Drink Sprite.
No wait... image is everything, value for money is nothing, buy Apple. |

Available for Chrome. Seriously, there's not good reason not to switch. Chrome FTW.

Chrome's adblock is not doing a very good job. :/ It's kinda glitchy too sometimes it just won't display webpages for whatever reason no matter how many times I reload so I have to open up firefox and it works fine.. |

Chrome is a little buggy, sometimes it crashes and you have to kill pages, but the browsing is just so much faster than any other, and the shortcuts/apps rock for it. |

| Yeah it is noticeably faster and sleek as hell. I really like the Auto HD extension for youtube. |

Well whatever I say you'll bring a good counter argument, and I respect that, however I fail to see how they will continue to be amazing past the next few years using the residual momentum they have.
If however Their boy Johnny fronts it large. |

Not sure who Johnny is (unless you mean Tim?) but I can see how people are saying Apple are not going to be the same.
The only thing is, the next generation of macbook and macbook pros, by all pre release accounts are looking like very serious machines. They've done something with the processor and motherboard combos which are giving insanely powerful results. As seandroid pointed out in another thread, the new entry level macbook air (known for the portability benefits at the expense of processing power) blows the last entry level MBP (at twice the cost) out of the water.
So if the reports are true, the new gen of MBP are going to beefy.
Of course, beyond that, it will be interesting to see actually how much control and impact Steve Jobs really had on Mac product development, which IMO, was less and less in recent years (choosing to focus more on mobile, tablet and app markets). If the macs in 3 years time suck, we know it was all him. |
