It's more of a religious thing. Although, ATI makes okay Linux drivers..they 
have nil support for BSD (my preferred OS) and I just like backing Nvidia.

The Macbooks are gorgeous, but their feature set which justifies the price is 
mostly only available under OS X and as much as I love OS X..I much prefer 
XFCE as a manager and don't want to get away from Xorg.

Thanks for the input.
