I'm almost sold. Last question:
 
Be cheap and get the MacBook or spring for the Pro?

Subject: Re: [nycphp-talk] Zend IDE problems and the Apple MACs as
develomentplatforms
 
Hi Cliff,
 
I have been using Zend IDE for a few years now on OS X on a powerbook,
and more recently, a Mac Pro and a Macbook Pro. On the Mac Pro, the IDE
is lightning fast (as one would expect). On the 2ghz Intel Core Duo
Macbook Pro, the IDE is a delight to work with, and no noticeable
problems. I have 1gb Ram, and usually have Mail, Firefox, iTunes,
Transmit (FTP), Adium (MSN Chat) and a few other small programs running
alongside it. Zend is also saving/opening files over an NFS mount on a
local network.
 
Java support on the Apple Mac is a lot better / faster in my experience
over windows.
 
Rgds,
Khalid

After this flurry of ZEND IDE problems, my laptop's 10 minute battery
life, 256M of RAM, overheating, etc., I'm thinking it's finally time to
get a new laptop. And I'm thinking of bailing Windows to get a Macbook
pro or just a regular macbook.
 
Is anyone using Zend on an Intel-based Macbook? Any problems? Good
development environment? Any comments regarding the Macbook vs Mackbook
pro?
 
Chanukah is only two days away.
