Heading to Mac

After hankering after trying OS X for quite a while, I'm pretty much decided on going for a Macbook now that Windows can be run on Intel Macs. So much so that I just bought Parallels in advance (virtualisation software that allows you to run Windows and any other OS alongside OS X). Well, the introductory price offer does run out tomorrow :) Now all I need to do is raise the cash to buy a Macbook. I reckon I can do so by selling my video camera (Sony DCR-SR90/100) followed by my existing Windows laptop. The video camera was only bought in May, but after my two week road trip, I found that I basically just didn't use it. I'm very keen on still photography so lugging a camcorder around as well as my EOS 350D (plus spare lens) was too much on holiday and in the end we only used the camcorder from the car (largely trying to capture the V6 roar going through tunnels in the Alps). So as cool a piece of kit as it is, it's not something I'm likely to use enough following my holiday experience - if I didn't use it then, when will I? As such, it'll be going on ebay soon in the hope I can make most of my money back. If I get the Sony sold, I should be pretty close to getting a Macbook (hopefully close enough to buying one before having to part with the Dell D410 laptop). If I can then get a decent price for the Dell I should be sorted. Yes I'm impatient and stupid :)
