Hey,
Alright so a quick recap... I'm on my third PC, this one is a Toshiba laptop. My roommate just got a Macbook, and he loves it. I'm sick of Windows crashing and giving me issues so I am thinking about the jump to Mac. I am going to need the 2.2ghz Macbook Pro because occasionally I like to play a computer game and so I think the graphics card is worth it. A few questions I want to clarify before I buy one are:
1) I love to download torrents (mostly movies & tv shows) - Will this be an issue on a mac?
2) Mac office to Windows office - Are there any issues with this? For instance, will a PowerPoint designed on Mac, display correctly on a PC? This is important as I am in business school and am constantly sending/receiving office files (mostly from PC's).
3) I know that they have the current 'Tiger' OS. When the 'Leopard OS' comes out, will there be a free upgrade for 'Tiger' users? Or should I consider waiting until October?
Thanks for the help, I really appreciate it.
Paul
