Laptop, Notebook...What kind is the best?

I agree with KBlaix. We have a MacBook, and it is great. If you have a lot of software that you need to run on Windows, there are a couple of different ways to run Windows on a MacBook. We are primarily a Mac household and use mostly OSX, but we also have Boot Camp and Windows XP for those times when we really need to use Windows software.

Also, we bought ours refurbished directly from Apple and were able to get the mid-range version for the low-end price. You would really never know it was a refurb.
