Their have been lots of threads on this, and I think its necessary being that the question is so popular to open a sticky on this. Why it would need a lot of information on the deciding factors. The questions need to be asked in a perfect sequencial order in order to work. Why if someone was still caught up in the decision based on a major facto likea video professional I suppose they could post another thread on this, but instead of cluttering the forum with this why not make it better. You got a sticky for backpacks lets make one for "Deciding which powerbook you should get"

List benefits and negatives below. Lets start brainstorming ideas to make this sticky really informative I got to think for awhile but all be back. Why not one of you start the buzz. I think this is a really good Idea and I hope all of you on macnn agree.
