Would you like me to bring an (older) Mac Laptop to Escapade for you to play with?
The switch isn't very hard, but if you're running office you'll need to buy Office for OS X or get Open Office for OS X. (OO is a free download.) I have never had a problem opening a .doc created on a Mac on a Windows machine and vice versa.
How much money do you want to spend? (Can you get any kind of an education/government employee discount where you work?)
Is this laptop going to be a "write papers and surf the web and play DVDs and listen to iTunes machine" or do you need something that's multi-media content creation?

My last laptop purchase, ironically, was a Dell e1450 -- but that's because the eventual plan is to set it up as a dual boot and throw Linux on it.
