The 17in MacBook Pro is really a fantastic machine for creatives and
anyone else looking for a high-powered, high-style laptop with a large
screen. Sure, it does cost a little more than your average Windows
laptop - around £2,100 for this configuration with the extra RAM from
Crucial, compared to more like £1,600 for something similar from Rock.
But aside from the obvious visual appeal, this kind of hardware
specification demands an OS to match up, and OSX does the job far better
than Vista.
