Well if you don't want to run MacOS or OS X at all why buy the Tibook ? Yes,
it's a very cute piece of kit and the screen is nice but it's actually quite
low resolution - 1152x768 as against 1400x1050 available on a number of
Intel notebooks. I will say this though - they drop well. I know of two them
which were dropped and have dented titanium cases but otherwise work just
fine. I shudder to think what would happen to the plastic case on this
Inspiron if it was dropped from any distance.


Have fun,
