Never would have thought it would happen but I guess I am on the Apple bandwagon, don’t expect to see any Apple logos on my vehicle any time soon though. I decided to buy a new system and am pretty happy with it so far.
Picked up an Apple 30″ Cinema Display and a MacBook Pro 2.33ghz with 3GB RAM and a 200 GB HD.
Running a resolution of 2560×1600 is pretty freaking sweet
I would have never made the switch if it wasn’t for Parallels, which is IMO the coolest software I have seen for any platform. It’s a virtualization product like VMware but what sets it apart is a feature called “Coherence” which meshes the 2 OS’s together.
This YouTube video probably explains it better then I can:

This is Ben @ Parallels…I’m the guy who made the YouTube video (and I’m also Parallels’ Director of Corporate Communications). Glad you love our stuff!

Hated this at first but now I really like that feature. [...]
