Laptops & Notebooks - August 2007

I bought a MacBook Pro and the thing is a complete pile of sh!t. It doesn't work with any cool games, the battery life sucks and the keyboard is sized like it was made for a fourth grader. I don't know about other adults, but I'm definitely not pleased with this overpriced POS. Anyone else find themselves in the same boat? I think I'm going to eBay this sh!t and buy a cheap (adult sized) PC laptop.

Okay, im a new college student, have an average budget and need a laptop. One proble, i dont really know which one would be best for me.
Here's what I need it for:
*I'm into art, so i would be using a photoshop and graphite pen tablet.
*I love my music, so i'll be listening to it quite a lot.
*I dont do much gaming, so, dont really have to worry about that.
*I will be doing research and taking notes (woo whoo)
*I love taking pictures, so alotta pics are probably going to be on it.
*It needs to be on the tough side, because, im a bit clumsy at times.
*I love burning CDs, DVDs, and rewritting, so..... yeah
*oh, and sometimes, i need things to load quick, online and on my computer
Sorry to sound picky lol.
What laptop do you think is best for me? I was thinking the MacBook, but, im not an expert lol

Thank you so much for your help!

I get kicked off and get the message Mac Os X and other applications are not affected. Then it prompts me to send error report to apple. Why do I get this message?

I'm not too computer savvy so this might be easy. I bought a new laptop and my old laptop still works fine, just needed an upgrade. There are files from the old that I want on the new. Is there an easy way to transfer these computer to computer. I thought maybe using an ethernet cable would work, but I don't know where to go from there. Please help. Thank you

My laptop crashed just before school ended last year, so now I'm in need of a new one. I was leaning towards the Gateway MX8738, as Best Buy had it on sale a few weeks ago, but now I'm reading that it's battery life isn't the greatest, mainly because the 17" screen. I need one that'll last at least through the 2 hour classes, and I would like one that has many of the same features the MX8738 has, as well as not cost to much (i.e. somewhere below $850). Any ideas or suggestions?

I just got a new Asus g1s-a1 laptop today. its upgraded, it should run vista awesome. HOwever, even after installing the updates, my internet is slow, and my programs r slow. Like it was a 5 year old computer slow. I checked teh task manager, and it said my cpu usage was unbelievably high even though i had nothing open. I checked the processes, and they didnt add up to my high CPU usage...what is my Vista doing? I've had the laptop open for about an hour and a half...is it doing some configuring or somthing?
