My new laptop

Since I am now in grad school, I needed a new laptop to replace the one I used to have from work. So today I bought a 2 GHz white Macbook, and I must say that I love it. I am still learning my way around OS X, but it has been a positive experience thus far.

I am debating whether to buy Microsoft Office for Mac. I can get it for the educational price of $150; however, it is only available as a PowerPC binary, not a so-called Universal Binary compiled for the Intel Macs. I hope Microsoft gets their act together and releases a recompiled version soon.
