Ok I am reading all the comments about Mac computers on here and am beginning to think I should cancel my order for a new HP notebook and get a Mac instead.

The question is why? I haven't used a Mac in a few years but do remember it wasn't that difficult to use.

My Office software is for a PC, so that would require a new licence right?

As I stated earlier my main application are lightweight:

Office
Internet (wireless)
Watching/Burning DVD's

I do take my computer with me when I travel, but not always. The new notebook I ordered is only 5 lbs, so not bad compared to the boat I have now.

I can't figure out why I would want to spend the extra $400 or so for a Mac as compared to a PC. Thoughts?
