Laptop for School

Don't know how you feel about pirating software, but an easier solution would be to use Parallels for Mac. It basically lets you run another OS (such as XP) inside a window or full screen. Perfect for everything except games since Parallels won't give you anything close to decent 3D acceleration.

On a side note, it's really cool to use Parallels and VirtueDesktops in combination. Virtue adds multi-desktop support with neato visual effects when changing between them. So you could have your Mac desktop on one side of a spinning cube while running Windows XP simultaneously on another side. Makes life so much easier.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

That's one thing I've never liked about Apple warranties: only one year. Even a shitty HP or Acer will have three years coverage. Does Apple's warranty cover the battery at least?

There's nowhere I can't reach.
