um, hello.  php triad (http://sourceforge.net/projects/phptriad/)

if you are on a mac for development, you're just plain crazy.  why would
YOU be on a mac if 95% of the real world (and probably your clients) is
on a windows client?

not to start a holy war, I love apple (and own stock).  but from a
development standpoint, it makes no sense.

AND, if the reason you are on it is for Apache, PHP, MySQL and you want
a laptop, you can run all of them using PHP Triad and get all of the
features that you would have developing on a mac or *nix box.

Also, for the money, I would probably still go with either a Dell or IBM
Thinkpad (t series) for the same or less of my hard-earned moolah.
