An Open Question to Mac Users

In a few months I hope to purchase a new laptop. I am in fact planning to make the switch to an Apple. For various reasons, I have had it with Windows. Right now, I use Windows XP about half the time, and Ubuntu 8.04 the other half of the time. I have a few questions for Mac users:

For web designers/programmers/graphic designers/etc:

  • Is a Macbook Pro necessary?

Everyone else:

  • Do you find yourself missing software from Windows (without resorting to VMWare, etc.)?
  • Do you feel the extra money for less hardware (compared to a Windows PC) was worth it?

Leave your opinion in the comments. Thanks!
