Back to Mac?

Hmm managed to get contacted by Dell Japan, but the process of changing HDD seems to be somewhat troublesome. I might just get a HDD of my own here and get the old one fixed when back in Singapore...

But it seems so sian to restore everything fully, I'm thinking of asking a friend to get a MacBook Pro for me. It's something I'd been considering recently, I thought I'd wait till next year when my Dell warranty expires, but now that I've got a dead HDD, the USD is cheap, and I've got friends in the USA, I'm really considering it. At US$1799 (with education discount), it's not really that costly either, given the current exchange rate...

Decisions, decisions...
