We have not had good success with the Dell laptops we have tried recently.

The price is right and those suckers fly. If you don't like Leopard, you can install XP/Vista on it. Just got to Other World Computing and get 4GB ram for less than $100.00
What were the issues with the Dell's? Was it firewire related like what Soundrage mentioned? Is there an easy fix like using a different firewire card?

I am apprehensive about buying a Mac for two reasons:

1. I've always used PC's at home and work and have never even touched a Mac, so I guess I have a fear of the unknown. I would have to research to know if it should be a consideration for me.

2. Looks cool but that 13" screen is a turn-off.

I don't want to put you on the spot but can you suggest other mfg's/models that work well with the N series?
