I decided a while back that I would most likely go for a Sony next having worked alongside a guy running Windows Server 2003 on his with TFS/SQL 2005 and I haven’t seen anything to sway me yet…

I have had a few dells in different jobs and I have to say, they’ve all far exceeded my expectations – at least WAY moreso than an HP 😉

My next laptop, due in midyear or so, will be a lenovo (ibm), so can’t comment on that one yet *grin*

I must admit, I hadn’t considered that. I’ll add it to my list of considerations…

I’m not joking either. Just install BootCamp and you are off and running in XP…and hopefully Vista soon. I have an iMac running XP and I love it.
