To get an instant map to any address, just go to your Address Book and right click on the address field of any one of your contacts and select "Map Of." The address will then be revealed in Google Maps on Safari. You can do the same if a data detector determines there is an address in an e-mail in Mail.

Let's also not forget the issue of OS and included software. I know we're trying to compare apples to apples, and I think it's safe to say that Apple has put a lot more work into creating a powerful, feature packed, easy to use operating system, including a boatload of multimedia software that consistently wins in comparisons to more expensive suites.
You have to count everything you're spending your money on, not just hardware speed and feature specs.

For the last 2-3 years, we've all been buying Apple notebooks that are light-years behind the offerings of other companies in speed. However, the OS has always done quite a bit to compensate for this. Now that we have an Apple laptop that is virtually comparable to those in the Windows world (though slightly slower by the numbers) the OS is efficient enough to give it a tremendous lead, I think. And the Acer that he highlighted is actually $2900 with the features it had, virtually the same deal that you get with a $2900 MacBook Pro.
And I absolutely agree with Dave; the software included with the Mac is insurmountable by a Windows PC. I already placed my order for a decked-out MacBook that I'll be using all through college.

Also there is no dual-layer dvd on the new macbook, which is a setback

The processor is much slower as well. Why they didn't give us a choice of the 2.16 I will never understand.

Doesn't anyone else think that the iBook will be called the MacBook and that's why they've called the PowerBook the MacBook Pro???
But I'm not even a mac user so maybe u guys don't think like this...?

The unability to run Virtual PC and the new, smaller card-slot puts me off to buy the MacBook Pro (for the moment)
