I have to admit that I had a "I want one!" reaction when I saw the Mac Air news. I have an iPhone and iPods and it seemed right to switch from PC's to a Mac now, especially since I could use bootloader (or better yet, Fusion) to switch to XP or Linux. Also due to Office 2008.

But I should probably calm down and wait a bit to see how the Mac Air really does and what the next version, maybe 6 months from now, looks like. I wanted to do the same with the iPhone and wait for 3G, but for work reasons I had to get one now.

I truthfully have no real reason to switch to a Mac. My Thinkpad does all I need. But the world seems to be moving in the direction of Apple now. I'm sure it will eventually swing away from Apple, but for now...
