I’ve been wanting to purchase a new laptop for quite a while now. However, I was so disappointed with my last one (a Compaq Presario 1501CL) that it’s almost turned me off on the whole idea of owning a laptop. The Compaq’s battery life sucked, the add-on WiFi card had problems, the power supply blew up, it sucked power while in hibernate mode, etc. etc.

Well, today Apple announced a piece of software called “Boot Camp”:1 that will allow you to dual boot Intel-based Apple’s to either OSX or Windows XP. Now I have another choice in laptops that I probably won’t buy.
