I could agree more with that. I have been running OSx86 only for a short while now to learn about OSX, and I already contemplate saving money to buy a Macbook Pro. In general I do not like Apple, both for some of their business ethics as the zealotism of a lot of their users, but I am impressed enough by OSX to want to run the real thing with all features and speed.
