Exchanged MacBook for Sony Viao-smart move for my situation?
I grew up a windows junkie, and i do enjoy windows a lot. I'm one of those lucky few who don't get blue screens, or big data problems or ever those small little glitches.
Now that it was time for me to buy a new computer, I decided 2 things, one i wanted a laptop instead of a desk top. Second is i wanted an Apple.
So i got the money and purchased a Macbook. God, that thing was like another relationship, and I loved the MacBook. But, when I realized that none of my video's were compatible with the Macbook, and read that I would have to install this and download that.. err I just don't understand a lick of it. So I freaked out, decided I wanted a Laptop with Windows on it, and exchanged my Macbook, which was a very sad process. I purchased a pink sony viao @ best buy.
Ahhh...comfort zone.
However the more I used it, the more I realized how much of a comfort zone I was in with the Macbook. And that the windows system is like a stiff ***** compared to the mac.
So my question is should I run back to the store and get my macbook back, or should I stick with the Sony Viao?
I don't know what I should do, I do like them both, but I have issue's with both.

Oh my god, i cant believe you did that. I've been a windows developer for 20 years. Got my first macbook in january.
I'll never use a windows pc again except when Im being paid to do so.
BTW, for $70 you could have gotten VMware Fusion, which lets you run windows inside your macbook as a "virtual machine".
You REALLY screwed up.

I think your problem is quite easy to solve. you need to get your Macbook back. because the Mac OS 10.5 leopard is so cool. i like it very much myselt. in fact, you can install two Oprating Systems in your Macbook. look at this, "Leopard is the most advanced OS in the world. it is so advanced that it even allows you run Windows on it."
For more specific info on how to install Windows on your Mac, you can click here: www.apple.com
you have mentioned that your video is not compatible on Macbook. if so, you can get yourselt a video converter. i can recommand you the converter i have been using for 2 years. it really easy and efficient. here is a link of its user guide:

There are diverse fashions of VAIO and Macbook. Macbook Air, as an occasion, is the weakest performer out of all the Macbooks. It sacrifices uncooked power for narrow layout. and you will't base your decision completely on overall performance. function performs a huge place as properly. what is going to you be employing this laptop for? trouble-free use? Websurfing, digital mail, and chatting? be conscious processing? pics and enhancing? Gaming? There are execs and cons to the two decision. as quickly as you recognize what you're employing it for, you are able to extra efficient answer the question of that's extra suitable for you. As a familiar rule, in case you're only employing the laptop for trouble-free familiar use, the two one may be a good decision. It comes all the way down to what you opt for: OSX or Vista.
