Hehe now i finally started my new job i thought i'd get myself a MacBook so i can do some work at home and do some designing
Its so much quicker than my pc, but then again its a better spec.
Dual core 2.4Ghz
120Gb HD
2Gb Ram
Not sure on the graphics card though, but this cost me £829
Still learning all the new programmes etc lol if anyone has any to recommend please let me know 
Thanks

I'd suggest getting a new mouse unless you have the hand size of Jermey Beadle.

You must have small girly hands then  
Just found it too small for my hand and was hurting after a few hours of use (no edits!), bought myself a Logitech Revolution and its much much much better.
