I broke down and bought it. The new 13″ Unibody MacBook. I have a 17″ Macbook Pro from work, but I’m a software developer that’s forced to stay in Windows most of the time. I felt that this warranted the expensive purchase of a more portable 13″ MacBook that provided better mobility and, most of all, a better operating system – OS X.
The real catch was that my buddy at Apple hooked me up with a 25% discount. I saved a total of $480. I recommend that you also get a MacBuddy. With savings this great I couldn’t pass up the opportunity. I have to say that I am loving it so far (the past 3 hours that I’ve had it open).
What am I going to do with my MacBook? Software Development! I’m primarily a Windows developer but I’m hoping to balance out my skill set with some good old hot chocolate… er… Cocoa. I’ve done some poking around in the iPhone SDK and am a part of the developer program, but haven’t had the time to produce anything wonderful. Well… now it’s go time.
Macbook. Apple Discount. Go Time.
