A Hybrid Notebook

December 1st, 2007

It’s taken longer to get here than expected, but I can now run either Win­dows Vista or Mac OS X Leop­ard from my Mac­Book Pro. What a treat — both oper­at­ing sys­tems on a sin­gle note­book that weighs less than 6 pounds. This will be a great con­ve­nience when trav­el­ing to work at a client’s office.

Bet­ter yet, Vista runs faster, more smoothly, and with bet­ter video sup­port on Apple’s device than the lap­top I bought 18 months ago from Alien­ware. Some­how, Alien­ware and Nvidia just couldn’t be both­ered to update the graph­ics dri­vers on the Alien­ware device.

Once again, Apple trumps all other tech ven­dors for qual­ity of user experience…
