i am not a mac person period, but your choices vs Budget, leaves you with three options

one, Macbook pro, its runs all you need fast and well, the equvialent in vista well you can get models from HP, Lenovo, dell which will do the job quite well too, but

make sure you have 4gb of memory, 160gb hard drive a graphics card "so its not relying on ur cpu and memory"

and a intel core duo or better 2.2ghz or more

in short the cheapest will be about 800£ from dell, followed about the same from hp, then lenovo then mac

if your comfy with a mac, then go mac, if not buy a dell laptop note with dell, if you where to upgrade the memory yourself you wont invalidate the warrenty this can save you a lot of money on memory


personally i do all my work via desktop computer and only use a laptop to show a client the website or e-commerce packages, hell most of my work these days, is simply to advise clients on what there IT needs are,
