allvin,
I suppose since you're gonna wait till next year for the X3000 and "Santa Rosa", u may also want to wait for them to introduce the 888MHz front bus speed. I was told to wait but i figured there's no way of keeping up-to-date with latest technology. My theory, or at least I tell myself there's really no best time to get something

Personally, I believe the quad core will be introduced to lappies, they probably be called Core 3 Duo or maybe Core 2 Duo 2/3/4? *shrugs*
Er, what's Hackitosh?
I choose to wait it's because of the spec, especially GMA950. On the other hand, MBP is definite out of my budget. I just want a descent GC mobility which can perform a bit better in gaming. I'm not a hardcore gamer. When i heard about X3000, which impress me. It support HDR & SM3, which is more powerful than my current 9550 engine which only SM2

And hopefully the new chipset also using DDR3 ram.

Darn crazy... Anyway, *if* by that time, macbook price is similar like now but with all those goodies, i'm so eager to get it. At least it suit for me

Hackintosh AKA OSx86 can be install in our current machine. But don't expect about the performance. It will be darn slow than a real mac. I have been using or testing OSx86 since last year ago.

oh btw i'm not a Windows fanboy. i'm a user of both (and bring in Linux too!!), just haven't tried photoshop on Mac cos you know la. $$$$$.
i like my Mac, i like my PC.I second that. I'm not sure about now, i know apps like autocad which only for win. Even you are a macfanboy, and if let say you need use autocad, you still need go winxp. No choice, but to live with it. After all, mac os, winxp and linux, all three are just tools for human
