While the interwebs are all atwitter lately over the release of the new iPad, I've been drooling over the prospect of a new MacBook Pro, and waiting, ever so patiently, for the launch of Adobe's new Creative Suite5. Bearing this in mind,  I'd like to take a moment now to give the lowly 13" MacBook a well-deserved plug...

Never let anyone tell you this little machine isn't good enough for 'serious computing'. Over the past year, I've run my entire business on it, hooked up to a 17" screen.

I maxed out the RAM a while back, to give it some extra oomph, and since then, it's had no problem running the entire Creative Suite (and MS Office). Even with numerous applications open simultaneously it still manages to chug out 100mg+ photoshop files, with nary a complaint.

Not bad for a computer that I bought on a whim, so I could have the luxury of checking my email from bed.
