A personal computer to aspire for: MACBOOK PRO

Why would I want a MAC?
It is because I am convinced, to be excellent, we need a good mind, a sound purpose..and the ultimate tool to achieve our goals.
THE MAC meets this criteria, I mean why would my church use Macbooks when there are many Windows based PCs, more affordable and more accessible available?
It must say something then about the choice of what gadget to use.
Excellent gadgets deserve to be utilized by people of excellence.
nuff said.
I hope the price is excellently within reach as well.
Updates to follow on this.
