[BC] notebook suggestions

[randymoore@nettally.com]

I recommend an Apple MacBook or MacBook Pro.

My wife wanted one and after using it I decided I wanted one too.   
Best made, easiest to use most reliable laptop I have ever used.

I am using the Parallels Desktop application that lets me install any  
additional operating systems that I want to run in parallel.  In  
addition to the Mac Operating System I have installed XP Pro, Suse  
Linux and Ubuntu Linux.  I can run all of the operating systems  at  
the same time if I want.

Great computer and you are not stuck using only windoze.
